CSK vs RR: Why is Deepak Chahar Not Playing Today's IPL 2023 Match? Check CSK Playing XI

In an important news update, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will unfortunately miss the services of their premier pace bowler Deepak Chahar in today’s Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) being hosted at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Things have panned out in an ideal manner for the Chennai Super Kings recently in the IPL 2023 season as they went on to register two superb back-to-back victories against Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants. MS Dhoni-led CSK are currently placed at the fifth position on the points table.

CSK vs RR: Why is Deepak Chahar Not Playing Today’s IPL 2023 Match?

It is a big setback for the Chennai Super Kings that their premier new ball fast bowler Deepak Chahar will not be part of the CSK Playing XI in the CSK vs RR IPL 2023 match on Wednesday. After having bowled just a single over during the last match against Mumbai Indians, the right-arm pacer once again pulled off his hamstring which forced him to leave the field midway in the first innings. Chahar is certain to miss the upcoming few games of IPL 2023 for Chennai Super Kings and it is still unclear as to when he will return to complete fitness. He had not bowled very well in the T20 tournament so far having conceded a total of 55 runs in his 4 overs against Lucknow Super Giants.

Deepak Chahar IPL 2023 Salary

During the IPL 2022 mega auction, the Chennai Super Kings invested a massive amount of INR 14 Crore in right-arm pacer Deepak Chahar, but unfortunately, he was ruled out for the entire competition due to injury. But the CSK management kept their faith and retained Chahar for IPL 2023.
