Delhi. Team India, engaged in the preparations for the T20 World Cup through IPL, has suffered a major setback. All-rounder Deepak Chahar may be away from the field for four months. In such a situation, it is also difficult for him to play in the T20 World Cup. Deepak suffered a muscle strain during the series against West Indies. After this, he was expected to return by the end of April, but now his back has also hurt and he can stay away from cricket for four months. In such a situation, it is almost certain that Hardik Pandya or Shardul Thakur will get a chance.

According to the news, Deepak Chahar, who is training in NCA, has been injured for the second time. In the month of February this year, he suffered a muscle strain during the series against West Indies. Chahar was training at the NCA to recover from the injury and was expected to be fit by the end of April. Now he is out of IPL and may also be out of T20 World Cup.

Big blow to the Chennai team
Deepak Chahar specializes in taking wickets in the powerplay and keeping his batting in mind, the Chennai team had attached him with them at a cost of 14 crores, but he has not been able to play any match for his team this season. This has also affected the performance of the team. After losing the first four matches, Chennai’s team won the fifth match. In this match, Chennai’s batsmen scored the highest score of the season, then the bowlers were able to win by 23 runs.

After Chahar’s exit from the IPL, Chennai is looking for the difficulty to reach the playoffs, as the team’s bowling is very weak and it will be difficult to make it to the playoffs on the strength of the batsmen alone. Chahar’s record in the powerplay for Chennai is excellent. He has taken 42 wickets in 58 innings in the powerplay and scored runs at an economy rate of 7.61. At the same time, Mukesh Chaudhary, who was included in the team in his place, has not been able to do anything special.

Chahar’s place was decided by the Indian team
Deepak Chahar was almost certain to play in the Indian team. He is adept at swinging the new ball in the initial overs and can play useful innings with the bat in the end. The special thing about his batting is that apart from hitting big shots, he also knows how to run the game with one and two runs. Such players prove to be very useful when early wickets fall early. In the series against South Africa and West Indies, Chahar was impressed with both the ball and the bat.

The T20 World Cup is to be held in Australia, where the fast bowlers get help. In such a situation, Chahar’s play was almost certain, but after his injury, Hardik Pandya or Shardul Thakur can be given a chance. Both are bowling consistently at 140 paces and are playing good innings with the bat as well.

India would not like to feed injured Chahar
In the T20 World Cup 2021, the Indian team included the injured Hardik Pandya in the team and had to face the consequences. Pandya was neither able to perform well with the bat nor could he impress with the ball. Because of him, the balance of the team was also disturbed and India could not even reach the semi-finals. This time the Indian team would not like to repeat this mistake. If Chahar is not fully fit before the World Cup, then Hardik Pandya, Shardul Thakur, or Bhuvneshwar Kumar can be given a chance in his place. However, Bhuvneshwar’s place has already been confirmed in Team India.
