SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) spinner Rahul Chahar shared an interesting incident of taking revenge against a batter from Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in IPL 2021 as well, where Chahar was playing for the Mumbai Indians (MI).

During a game against RCB in Dubai, KS Bharat took on Rahul Chahar. The former RCB batter hit the spinner for a six in his very first over as well. As Chahar returned for his second over, Bharat smashed him for another six as well. However, Chahar eventually dismissed him

“There was a game against RCB. There is a player named KS Bharat. He had hit me for two sixes and celebrated. Generally, batters do not celebrate. I got so pissed. I was like what the hell is this? Batters do not celebrate. I got to my head, and I dismissed him within the next few balls. I gave him a send-off and went with him almost till the dressing room. That came from inside because he was teasing me. But we played after the game because we used to play together. That was fun. But you can’t do this with a senior player,” he said in an exclusive interview with Filmygyan.

“It happens many times. I remember in 2020 when I got Virat out, I didn’t celebrate. It comes from within, that respect. They have achieved a lot in life. What will I win or get by getting them out? It is nothing in front of that. So why should I show my aggression to them? If someone hits me for two or three sixes and then gets out, then that aggression comes. That comes on its own. That may happen a bit with a senior player as well. But that won’t be towards the player, it will be for me that I did it,” he further added.

However, Rahul Chahar also expressed his happiness as RCB finally won the IPL trophy. He also said that the fans and Virat Kohli deserved that moment.

“I was so happy. Someone was asking me before the final which team I want should win. I was like RCB. For the fans, who have been waiting for so many years, they deserve it man. Even Virat, who has achieved everything, he also deserved it. People always taunt that RCB has never won in so many years. It was very important for this to happen,” he said.

“I think it was very emotional. The entire nation would have been emotional. That person who has achieved everything was showing emotions like a kid. There is so much to learn for youngsters. Even today, he is so humble. Even after having achieved everything, a trophy matters so much to him. It made all of us emotional. He deserved it,” Rahul Chahar concluded.
