2011 World Cup winner Yuvraj Singh has become a target on Twitter after calling Yuzvendra Chahal by a casteist remark during a live chat with Rohit Sharma.
Yuvraj and Rohit were discussing Chahal’s foray into video making on TikTok where the leggie has become a sensation for his funny videos involving his family as well. However, during the discussion Yuvraj made a remark that has got him into big trouble with “Yuvraj apologize” being the top trend in Hindi on Twitter.

The left-handed all-rounder called Chahal a ‘bhangi’ (a casteist remark) referring to the latter’s popular TikTok videos.

The hashtag #युवराज_सिंह_माफी_मांगो has so far seen nearly 20,000 tweets with users demanding an apology from the retired international.
