Toh wahan se phir jo unhone bataya, phir main tabse……..(There is one senior cricketer who had saved Rohit Sharma’s name in his phonebook as ‘Rohita’. So, when he revealed the same to me since then I’ve been calling him as Rohita).”
Noteworthy, Chahal has represented India in 52 ODIs and 42 T20Is and has taken 91 and 55 wickets respectively so far.
