Yuzvendra Chahal was in sublime form during Rajasthan Royals' thrilling win against Kolkata Knight Riders on Monday at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. The star leg-spinner took five wickets, including a hat-trick, to leave KKR reeling as they fell seven runs short of the Royals' 217-run total. His wife, Dhanashree Verma, was in the stands to enjoy his career-best IPL performance. The two, who are known to be active on social media, later had a fun conversation after the match was done and dusted.
"How do you feel I'm out of the bubble?" Dhanashree asked Chahal in a video shared by Rajasthan Royals.
"It's a great feeling," the spinner responded
“Itna khush ki hat-trick le lia? (You're so happy that you took a hat-trick?)" she followed up.
"Yeah. First hat-trick!" he responded with a grin.
