A few days ago, Rohit Sharma’s wife, Ritika Sajdeh, called Yuzvendra Chahal a ‘cartoon’ in an interaction with Harbhajan Singh and Geeta Basra when she was asked about a term for the leg spinner.

While the comment was floating around the internet for a while, Yuzvendra Chahal’s recent podcast with Raj Shamani might have added an interesting twist to the tale!

In a recent podcast with Raj Shamani, Yuzvendra Chahal clarified some facts about his projected and actual personality.

Yuzi said that people sometimes take him for granted because of his funny persona, but he knows about everything and notices everyone who speaks about him; sometimes, he just doesn’t react.

People are saying that Yuzi’s statement might be an indirect reply to Ritika and Rohit’s ‘cartoon’ comment.

But some of them said that the two things might not even be related to each other.

One user commented, “Yuzi's podcast reply is like the cricket world's version of a good hackathon project - it's got all the pieces, but somehow still manages to leave you wondering what the hell it's supposed to be.

Another user reacted, “What is wrong in calling him a cartoon? Just face it man. Life is about accepting reality. By not accepting reality, you approached and married a girl based on how she looked, knowing that you only had money to pursuade her n she married u based on how much she can have from you.”
