Now, Chahal was at it again with Root being his perfect aide. During RR's recent team travel, Chahal could be seen riding Root's suitcase, who was more than happy to offer his services in helping Chahal. The two could be seen moving quite fast, as they crashed into two teammates, who were surprised but then ended up laughing.
