Team India cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal turned 31 on Friday. On his special day, Wishes poured in on social media from across the world for the leg spinner, who plays for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Chahal's India teammate Shikhar Dhawan was among the first to wish the bowler. On Instagram Stories, Dhawan shared an image with Chahal from what looks like a party and wrote, "Hope this year brings you more twists and turns, happy birthday bro."
