\"I was quite nervous and anxious because this amount is what I got in the last three seasons combined. I think I deserve this price, and I am very excited,\" said Chahal on JioCinema.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"Whoever has been bought at any price is well-deserved. Sometimes teams don\u2019t have the purse, and they must plan the whole team at the main auction. For me, being selected means these two months will help you improve your game \u2013 whether you are a youngster or a senior. You get to learn a lot,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
On the prospect of playing with Arshdeep Singh and Shreyas Iyer, who were acquired by Punjab for Rs 18 crore and Rs 26.75 crore, respectively, Chahal said, \"I\u2019m excited as my bond with Shreyas Iyer and Arshdeep Singh is strong, and I will also get to learn a lot from Ricky Ponting sir. At least I\u2019m closer to home now. It was Jaipur initially, and now it will be Chandigarh.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I had a hunch and even my friends told me that I\u2019d go to Punjab, but I had no idea it would be for such a high price. I had Rs 12 cr - 13 cr in mind, but I do deserve this. Wherever you go, you always have the opportunity to learn and grow, and I\u2019ll make sure to work hard and deliver my best,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Chahal reflected on his time with fellow spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and said he has learned a lot from the veteran bowler.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
