@@ -85,6 +85,7 @@ Other API changes
 - Added :meth:`DataFrame.value_counts` (:issue:`5377`)
 - :meth:`Groupby.groups` now returns an abbreviated representation when called on large dataframes (:issue:`1135`)
 - ``loc`` lookups with an object-dtype :class:`Index` and an integer key will now raise ``KeyError`` instead of ``TypeError`` when key is missing (:issue:`31905`)
+- Using a :func:`pandas.api.indexers.BaseIndexer` with ``min``, ``max``, ``std``, ``var``, ``count``, ``skew``, ``cov``, ``corr`` will now raise a ``NotImplementedError`` (:issue:`32865`)
