Rashid Khan asks Yuzvendra Chahal for an invitation: The Afghanistan leg-spinner has expressed desires of appearing on Chahal TV.
India leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal’s latest way of gaining the limelight seems to be working well for him. The 28-year old cricketer has risen above the departments of batting, bowling and fielding to find an alternative source of entertaining his fans.

Despite India leaving out Chahal from the first two ODIs, he has been making the rounds in the news courtesy of his post-match show named Chahal TV. With the mic in hand, Chahal is usually seen interviewing the top-performers of the Indian team after the matches.
Talking about this series, he had hosted India all-rounder Kedar Jadhav and chinaman bowler Kuldeep Yadav after the first ODI at Hyderabad. Post the second ODI at Nagpur last night, Chahal had India captain Virat Kohli and all-rounder Vijay Shankar as guests.
The episodes of Chahal TV are uploaded on the official website of BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India). After BCCI uploaded the same, Chahal also retweeted it from his account.

Chahal’s tweet witnessed a comment from Afghanistan leg-spinner Rashid Khan, who took to his Twitter account to express his desire of featuring on Chahal TV one day. “Hami bi khabi invite karo apni channel pe bhai jan (Dear brother, please invite me sometime on your channel),” Rashid Khan’s tweet read.

Chahal is yet to invite any overseas cricketer on his show. With Rashid Khan making public his desire, here is hoping for the same to happen soon. Moreover, with the 12th season of the Indian Premier League on the cards, efforts can be made to make the duo share screen space.
Talking about cricket, Chahal would be hoping to get a go in the remaining three ODIs against Australia. On the other hand, Rashid Khan is also in India playing in the ODI series between Afghanistan and Ireland. After three ODIs, the five-match series is drawn level at 1-1.
