Deepak Chahar became an overnight score and a potential frontline bowler for India in upcoming T20 World Cup 2019 by registering the best bowling figures in the format including a maiden hat-trick. Since then, stories of former Australian cricketer Greg Chappell, director of cricket Rajasthan (in 2008) turning him down and MS Dhoni backing him to play for IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have started resurfacing.
With these stories, a tweet of former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra from 2010 resurfaced as well. In that tweet, Chopra prophecised that Chahar is one bowler to look out for in the future.
Twitterati were impressed by the 42-year-old’s talent-spotting skills and lauded him:
The 27-year-old made headlines once again by picking three wickets of three consecutive legitimate deliveries in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2019 against Vidarbha on Tuesday.
The Rajasthan bowler has now played seven T20Is for India taking 14 wickets at a stupendous average of 10 with an impressive economy rate of 5.75. The CSK bowler has played 34 games and picked 33 wickets in his IPL career so far.
