On Tuesday, wrist-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who was selected in the India's 12-man T20I squad for the first encounter, took to Instagram to upload a video of his workout session in Brisbane. In the post, where he can be seen working hard on his fitness, he wrote "Trying to UP the game down under #stayahead #indvsaus."

The video got instant reactions from his fans with a few asking him to consume protein powder.

Veteran Windies cricketer Chris Gayle also joined the fans and said, "Lord help me."

Earlier in the day, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday announced India's 12-man squad for the first T20 International on Wednesday.

The Virat Kohli-led team features three spinners in Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal and Krunal Pandya, the all-rounder who made his international debut in the recently-concluded T20I series against the West Indies.
