One of the biggest shocks before the retained players list was announced by all teams ahead of the IPL Mega Auction 2022 was that Yuzvendra Chahal was let go by Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).
Chahal, in the past, had said that he never sees him playing for any other franchise as RCB is where he has played most of his cricket and is emotionally attached to the franchise.
However, one phone call from RCB's Director of Cricket Mike Hesson changed everything.
In an interview to a news publication, Chahal has said that he was never asked whether he wants to be retained, he was just informed over a phone call that his name was not there in the name of retentions.
“They didn’t ask me whether I wanted to be retained or tell me if they wanted to retain me. They just talked about the three retentions and I was told that – ‘we will go for you in the auction’. Neither was I asked about money nor did I get any offer of retention. But I will always be loyal to my Bangalore fans. I love them so much, no matter what,” Chahal said while speaking to Times of India.
