With many major cricket series and tournaments continue to be paused amid the COVID-19 lockdown, many prominent players are raring to go back to the field and showcase their blitzes. Well, India leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal is certainly one of them. The Haryana-born cricketer, who is an active user of social media, has been frequently posting throwback pictures and videos with his teammates. Recently, the 29-year-old bowler went down the memory lane again and shared an old picture with former Indian captain MS Dhoni and fellow spinner Kuldeep Yadav.

Chahal is known to share a great bond with both Dhoni and Kuldeep and on many occasions, he has also heaped praises on the two cricketers. His love for the wicket-keeper batsman, however, has bagged a lot of attention in recent times. In many of his recent posts too, the leg-spinner has expressed how much he’s missing the two-time World Cup-winning captain.
