Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal is known for his antics with his 'Chahal TV' interviews where the cricketer interacts with his teammates after few limited-overs matches featuring the national side. Even though Chahal was not part of India’s victorious squad against Bangladesh, the tradition continued with star batsman Rohit Sharma taking over the role. The BCCI recently took to social media to upload the video of Rohit interviewing India quicks Ishant Sharma and Umesh Yadav after their win in the Day-Night Test at the Eden Gardens.
