After being named in India's T20 World Cup squad, spinner Rahul Chahar said that he is feeling excited and a little emotional. Chahar was also congratulated by his Mumbai Indians teammates who were near him at the time.
He is currently in Abu Dhabi training in the Mumbai Indians camp ahead of the second half of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021.
Mumbai Indians captured his emotions on the camera and later shared a video on their official Instagram handle. "It took a lot of hard work, World Cup is a very big thing, you get few chances to represent your country in tournaments like these so I am excited and a little emotional," said Chahar in a video posted by Mumbai Indians.
