India's spinner Yuzvendra Chahal isn't someone who likes to stay inside locked doors for too long. His close buddy and teammate Rohit Sharma had told fans on Instagram live that if Chahal has to stay inside it means something is serious.

In the latest interaction with sports presenter Jatin Sapru, Chahal jokingly said he won't come back home once the lockdown is over and the country defeats COVID-19.

"Main apne ghar se lockdown ho jaunga (I will get lock-downed from my home), I will not come back to my home, that's it for me...I can't take this anymore, can't stay at home for longer now. These days of staying at home will suffice for the next three years now."

"I will live in a nearby hotel but will not stay at home, that's it for me now, can't bear any more lockdown days," Chahal said.

The leggie is eagerly waiting for the lockdown to get over so he could go outside and bowl. "I am going to ground, I really want to bowl. When there is a lot of cricket to play we say 'there is so much going on' but we start missing it when there is no action. You will good when you go to the ground, I miss bowling, I am what I am because of the cricket only. I will surely go and bowl at leat a ball on the day lockdown gets over".

Jatin asked Chahal to name a lockdown partner and he came up with two names. "I will choose 2 guys, Rohit Sharma and Kuldeep Yadav. Lock me down for a month then."

He added another name which the spinner believes isn't good for lockdown partner. "Bolta hi nahi h kuch. Uska yorker maarne ka man hua aur usne lota maar diya to kya karunga main (Bumrah does not speak much and what he throws a utensil at me if he feels like bowling a yorker)."
