Rajasthan Royals (RR) spinner Yuzvendra Chahal is renowned for his antics on and off the pitch. The 31-year-old cricketer often indulges in amusing banter with his teammates and in the latest episode, he is seen having a gala moment during an RR training session.
Chahal, who normally takes charge of the ball, can be seen outfitted in a batting kit and giving orders to teammates Sanju Samson and Shimron Hetmyer to tape the session and teach him.
Shortly after finishing the session, Chahal tries to mimic his teammate Ravindra Jadeja’s famous sword celebration.

Jos Buttler, who also appears in the video, tries to interfere with Chahal but ends up being teased by the spinner, who tells the Royals fly-half not to get jealous.
“Why do you get jealous if you get competition for the opening spot,” Chahal can be heard telling Buttler in the video.
The 31-year-old has enjoyed a superb campaign in the current edition of the Indian Premier League so far. He is currently the top wicket taker, with 11 scalps in four matches.
Buttler, meanwhile, is the orange cap holder with 218 runs in the same number of matches.
Rajasthan, who currently sit top of the points table, will be looking to build on their momentum when they take on Gujarat Titans on Thursday night.
