Ahead of the thrilling encounter between the two cricketing giants, Chahal took to Instagram to share a picture of himself batting in the nets. "Enjoying my day out in the nets," Chahal captioned his picture. However, England woman cricketer Danielle Wyatt took this opportunity to troll the leggie as she commented "bowled" with a 'grinning face' emoji on his post.
Team India fielding coach R Sridhar too trolled Chahal and wrote: "what a worried look" with a 'winking eye' emoji.

In a video posted by Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on its official twitter handle, when Rohit Sharma asked Chahal how he unwinds himself from the hectic schedule, he replied, "I have just moved with my family and whatever time I get, I spend time with them. I have a dog whose name is Groot and I spend time with him."
"I also met a couple of my childhood friends and go on a long drive with them and some time we play pool or Play Station because when you play for India or domestic match, you do not get time to meet them," Chahal added.
Kuldeep Yadav, who was also part of the candid interview, then expressed his fondness for Australia calling it a "beautiful" country.
"Australia is beautiful and cities like Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide are good cities. I like to go there," Yadav said.
