Chahal picked four wickets, including a hat-trick in just six deliveries to seal the game for the side.

Rajasthan took to their Twitter to updated about the same. “So we did a thing’’, Rajasthan wrote as caption.

Following his heroic performance on Monday, Chahal was also adjudged the Player of the Match. At the post match presentations, here’s what he had to say on his performance.

“I had to take wickets in this match to change the result. I worked on my bowling. I spoke to the coaches and the skipper. I was thinking of a googly but then I didn't want to take a chance. Would have been a happy with a dot ball as well on my hat-trick ball. My googly was coming out well and sent it down to Venkatesh Iyer.”

Rajasthan are currently sitting at second position on the points table with 4 wins in 6 matches. Sanju Samson and Co. are slated to play their next game against Delhi at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Friday.
