Ace spinner Yuzvendra Chahal on Wednesday completed 100 matches for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the ongoing IPL 2021 edition, when RCB faced off against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Chennai on April 14, 2021.
Chahal made his debut for RCB in IPL 2014 and has picked up 121 wickets in only 99 games for them. He was with Mumbai Indians before from 2011-2013, but played one solitary game for them, picking no wicket.
In a video posted by the RCB on their Twitter, their mascot Mr. Nags had a funny banter with Chahal and even mentioned that when he joined RCB in 2014, Chahal’s salary was less than Nags’, but then Chahal reminds that after playing for RCB, he played for India and his salary doubled.
Chahal also had a message for his and RCB fans, saying, “I started in 2014 and I came from Mumbai Indians. That time I never thought that I’ll play 100 matches for RCB. So, yeah, it’s a very emotional journey. This is my 100th match for RCB, I try my best. It’s a very emotional thing for me and I never thought I’d play 100 matches for one franchise.”

Meanwhile, his teammates wished him on the achievement, along with skipper Virat Kohli.
