Yuzvendra Chahal has set IPL 2022 on fire. His stint with new team Rajasthan Royals has been great so far. He is currently the Purple cap holder with 18 wickets in seven games. The performances of the leg-spinner might have made Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) regret their decision of releasing him.

The Royal Challengers’ loss has been Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) gain. In tandem with Ravichandran Ashwin, Chahal is wreaking havoc on the opposition batters. He even took a hat-trick against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and ended up with figures of 5/40 in a high-scoring encounter.
