In a light-hearted moment from the IPL match at Chepauk Stadium on May 1, Yuzvendra Chahal humorously called on Elon Musk to place a ‘copyright strike’ on fellow cricketer Harshal Patel. Yuzvendra Chahal noted that Harshal Patel’s celebration pose after taking a crucial catch to dismiss Sameer Rizvi during the PBKS vs. CSK game resembled his own signature style.
Yuzvendra Chahal took to X, the social media platform previously known as Twitter, to share his playful request. “Dear @elonmusk paaji, Harshal bhai pe copyright lagana hai,” Yuzvendra Chahal tweeted, highlighting the amusing incident.
The match itself was a strategic victory for PBKS, who restricted CSK to 162 for 7 in their 20 overs. CSK, opting to bat first, got off to a strong start with Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ajinkya Rahane putting up over 50 runs in the powerplay. However, PBKS spinner Harpreet Brar turned the game by dismissing Ajinkya Rahane and T20 World Cup-bound Shivam Dube shortly afterward. Despite Ruturaj’s Gaikwad consistent batting performance, scoring a 48-ball 62, CSK struggled in the middle overs, ultimately leading to a restrained finish with MS Dhoni adding 14 runs off 11 balls.
The playful exchange between Yuzvendra Chahal and Harshal Patel adds a humorous subplot to the intense competition, showcasing the lighter side of the sport amidst the high-stakes atmosphere of the IPL.
