Yuzvendra Chahal involved RCB's director of cricket Mike Hesson in the banter.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal engaged in banter with teammate Glenn Maxwell after the 10-wicket win against Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Thursday (April 22).
Chahal accused Maxwell of making an easy catch look difficult to win a phone. "I took two catches, made difficult catches look easy. That guy in the corner (pointing to Maxwell) made a simple catch look hard," said Chahal, to which Shahbaz Ahmed added, "Just for a phone."
"Yuzi bhai makes a difficult catch easy because he plays for the team. And a few people make an easy catch difficult just for a phone," Shahbaz further said.

The leggie took the banter to next level by involving RCB's director of cricket Mike Hesson. "I took two catches. Maxi took only one catch," Chahal said. "Just for the phone," he added. Even AB de Villiers featured in the video and called Maxwell's effort 'TV diving'.
"The fact that you took one catch is a miracle enough. But two in a game - the batters are silly enough to hit it to you twice", Maxwell later said in the video.
RCB defeated PBKS by 10 wickets and chased down 178 runs in just 16.3 overs. Devdutt Padikkal smashed unbeaten 101 runs and skipper Virat Kohli scored 72 not out off 47 balls.
