Deepak Chahar is set to miss a major part of the Indian Premier League (IPL) according to reports. This comes as a massive blow for his IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings who had bought the fast bowler for Rs 14 crore at the mega auction which took place in Bengaluru on February 12th and 13th.

Chahar was the second most expensive buy at the IPL auction. He was chased by Delhi Capitals and Chennai Superkings before he was bagged by CSK for a whopping amount. Chahar was phenomenal in 2018 and 2021 with the new ball which only added to CSK’s repertoire. Not only with the ball, he can also play a crucial role with the bat as well. His two recent knocks vs Sri Lanka (69*) and South Africa (54) almost brought India on the brink of a win.

The right-arm fast bowler had suffered an injury in the third T20I of the series against West Indies. Deepak Chahar’s injury occurred when the pacer was bowling the third over of the West Indies innings when he suddenly pulled up mid-way in his run-up and was seen holding his hamstring. Since then, Deepak Chahar has been out of action and was unavailable for selection for the series against Sri Lanka.
