Light hearted moment between Yuzvendra Chahal and Rohit Sharma
Ahead of the key encounter between the two sides, a hilarious moment took place when PBKS star spinner Yuzvendra Chahal did a cheeky check on Rohit Sharma. Interestingly, the moment is going viral on social media with fans appreciating the close bond between the two players.
During a practice session at the venue, Rohit was having a discussion with PBKS skipper Shreyas Iyer and Shardul Thakur, while Chahal spotted them from a distance.

It seemed that Rohit also enjoyed the joke made by the star leg-spinner, as both of them shared so many moments at the dressing room while playing for the Indian side in T20Is and ODIs.
