After almost 2 years, Yuzvendra Chahal finally broke his silence over being released by the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL.

After being snubbed by the now Faf du Plessis-led side, the leg-spinner said that it felt bad because it almost feels like family when you spend 8 years at a team.

'A lot of rumours came in, like I asked for huge amount of money. I clarified at the time that there wasn't anything like that. I know what I deserve,' he stated during Ranveer Allahbadiya's podcast on YouTube.

'What I felt really bad about was there was no phone call, no communication. At least have a talk. I had played 114 matches for them. In the auction, they promised me that they will go all-out for me. I said, fine. When I wasn't picked there, I was very angry. I gave them 8 years. Chinnaswamy was my favourite ground. I didn't talk to RCB coaches. The first match I played against them, I didn't talk to anyone,' Chahal added.
