[Saba Sports News] Yuzvendra Chahal, known for his competitive spirit on the cricket field and his affable nature off it, was recently at the center of a playful episode with wrestler Sangeeta Phogat. At the ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’ show’s finale party, a delightful scene unfolded as Phogat lifted Chahal onto her shoulders, an act that delighted fans and went viral on social media.
This interaction highlighted Chahal’s popularity, stemming from both his cricketing prowess, especially in bamboozling batters with his spin, and his amiable personality.
Chahal’s connection to the show was through his wife, Dhanashree Verma, a finalist who joined as a wildcard entry, while Phogat had participated earlier in the season.
Chahal, with an impressive international record, has been working hard in domestic cricket following his omission from the BCCI’s central contracts, signaling a possible shift in the selectors’ focus.
Despite this, the upcoming IPL season presents an opportunity for Chahal to showcase his talent and possibly secure a spot in the T20 World Cup squad, demonstrating his resilience and continued relevance in competitive cricket.
