Aakash Chopra was impressed with Chahal's performance in the second ODI against Sri Lanka

Recently, while speaking on ESPNCricinfo, Aakash opined that he was fascinated to see Chahal back in form as he was controlling his lines well and used variations perfectly to set up batsmen in the second ODI on Tuesday. Chahal finished the game with figures of 3/50. Chopra said:

"The wide array of subtle variations; it was a delight to watch. I actually really enjoyed watching him (Yuzvendra Chahal) bowl. He bowled a ball which was really flighted, but that wasn't his slowest delivery. The delivery that dismissed the batsman bowled, it was slightly flatter, but that wasn't the quickest delivery. Sometimes the ball spins a little more, sometimes it spins a little less."

Definitely a day to cherish 🇮🇳🇮🇳 Proud of each and every member of this team 💪 pic.twitter.com/NnrHHZsPLs
