People made different comments. Indian team leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal also commented on this tweet of Aakash Chopra. He wrote, ‘There should be one wicket on three dot balls, brother.’
Fans also enjoyed this funny conversation between Yuzvendra Chahal and Aakash Chopra. Not only this, Suresh Raina, a former all-rounder of the Indian cricket team and famous by the name of Mr. IPL, also commented. After this Aakash Chopra also replied to Chahal.
Aakash Chopra wrote, ‘For taking three wickets in a spell, the bowler should be allowed to bowl an extra over. Also, imagine a batter is trying to hit you for a 100m six (since it is 8), there is a good chance he gets stuck, taking the risk can reward the bowler in the form of wickets.’
