Yuzvendra chahal turned up the heat at Chepauk on Wednesday night, bagging a sensational hat-trick during Match 49 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. Playing for Punjab Kings (PBKS), the leg-spinner dismantled Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) innings in dramatic fashion, clinching the wickets of MS DhoniDeepak Hooda, and Anshul Kambhoj in the 19th over — sending shockwaves through the MA Chidambaram Stadium crowd.
Chahal’s late blitz came after a shaky start where he was put under pressure by Sam Curran and Dewald Brevis, both of whom attacked him with powerful strokes during the middle overs. Despite the early onslaught, Chahal held his nerve to deliver what may go down as one of the most memorable spells of IPL 2025.
Rj mahvash reacts to hat-trick, sparks fresh buzz over dating rumours
RJ Mahvash, who has been rumoured to be dating Chahal following his divorce from Dhanashree Verma, couldn’t contain her excitement. Taking to her Instagram stories after the match, she wrote, “God mode on kyaaaa? 🫨🙌 @yuzi_chahal23 strength of a warrior sir 🫡.”

This isn’t the first time Mahvash has dropped a cricket-related remark linked to Chahal. In a recent promotional video for a mobile app, she cheekily said, “Team banao aur paisa kamao, wicket toh Chahal le hi lega,” — a line that has since gone viral after last night’s performance.
Dating rumours refuse to die down
Speculation around Mahvash and Chahal’s relationship first caught fire in December 2024, when the RJ shared a festive photo featuring Chahal during a Christmas celebration. The buzz intensified when the duo was spotted together at the Champions Trophy final in Dubai, with photos and videos from the stadium doing the rounds on social media.
So far, neither Chahal nor Mahvash has publicly confirmed or denied the rumours, but their regular appearances and online banter continue to fuel curiosity among fans.
