Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has created a stir on social media with his recent activity on Instagram.
The leg spinner appears to have indirectly taken a dig at his ex-wife Dhanashree Verma before quickly deleting the post.
Mother, swear that you will not reverse this decision – Yuzvendra Chahal
The post shared on Chahal’s Instagram story shows the Delhi High Court’s decision regarding alimony payment. The post featured a quote from the court which read: “An economically independent wife cannot demand alimony. Alimony is given for social justice, it is not a means of enrichment.”
Yuzvendra Chahal shared the post with a hilarious caption: “Maa swear you will not reverse this decision,” along with laughing emojis.

For those unaware, Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree’s divorce was finalized in the Bombay High Court on March 20, 2025, leading to their separation in June 2022, just a few months after they tied the knot in December 2020.

Along with the divorce, the amount of alimony given by the cricketer also made a lot of headlines. According to reports, after the divorce was finalized, Chahal agreed to pay an alimony of Rs 4.75 crore to Dhanashree.
During the final court hearing, the out-of-favour spinner from the Indian team also took a dig at Dhanashree by wearing a T-shirt that read “Be Your Own Sugar Daddy”.
We have reached a point of no return: Yuzvendra Chahal
Soon after the divorce was finalized, Chahal opened up about his failed marriage with Dhanashree. Speaking on YouTuber Raj Shamani’s podcast, Chahal had said that the couple has reached a point of no return and divorce is the only way forward.
Chahal revealed, “This was going on for a long time. We decided that we didn’t want to show it to people. Who knew if it didn’t happen? Maybe it would have turned out to be a different scenario. We were like until we reached the point of no return, we were not going to say anything. We would live like a normal couple on social media.”
“A relationship is like a compromise. If one gets angry, the other has to listen. Sometimes the nature of two people doesn’t match. I was playing for India, she was too. This was going on for 1-2 years. At that time, I was so engrossed in it that I had to give time here, time there. I was not able to think about the relationship.”
