Axar Patel and Yuzvendra Chahal are currently two of top spin bowlers in Indian cricket. While Axar made a name for himself with his spectacular performances on Test debut in the home series against the England cricket team, Chahal has done well consistently in the shorter format of the game. The selection committee of the Indian cricket team raised quite a few eyebrows when they picked Axar Patel over Chahal for the ICC T20 World Cup 2021.
Still, there is time for Chahal to prove himself and gain a place in the Indian squad for the ICC T20 World Cup 2021. Meanwhile, Axar Patel and Chahal are currently playing in the 2021 edition of the Indian Premier League. Patel is a part of the Delhi Capitals squad while Chahal is a member of the Royal Challengers Bangalore team. Both are expected to lead their respective team’s spin attacks in the 2021 edition of the Indian Premier League.
While the Royal Challengers Bangalore got off to a disastrous start in the United Arab Emirates leg of the 2021 edition of the Indian Premier League, the Delhi Capitals are set to play their first match tonight against the Sunrisers Hyderabad team. Before the match against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2021 edition of the Indian Premier League, Axar Patel posted a photo on Twitter, where he copied a pose of Yuzvendra Chahal.
“Trying to give some posing competition to @yuzi_chahal. How’s it bro?” Axar Patel captioned the picture.
Yuzvendra Chahal responded to Axar Patel on Twitter
Soon after, Yuzvendra Chahal posted a tweet in the comments section of Axar Patel’s post. Chahal tried to pull Axar’s leg as he wrote:
“Keep trying kid.”
