“Very few people know about it. I never told it to anyone. It’s from 2013 when I was with Mumbai. We had a match at Bangalore and then a get-together was organized. There was a player who was really drunk, I won’t say his name. he overdrank and then called me, took me outside and then hung me from the balcony,”-said Chahal.

He further added – “Luckily my hand was around his neck. If I had lost the grip, we were on the 15^th floor. Thankfully, a few people came and got things in control. I kind of fainted after that. That day I realized how important it is to stay responsible when we go anywhere.”
