Chahal's Mystery started with the Mumbai Indians

He is fortunate to play cricket because he shifted to play cricket 'by chance'.He was a chess player at Indian national level competitions, later traded his mind to bowl leggies.

The Haryana born leggie came into limelight in the Cooch Behar Trophy in 2009 where picked up 34 wickets to end as the highest wicket-taker in the highly rated juvenile tournament in India.

This performance earned him his first class cap in 2009 for Haryana+-. Two years later he was signed by the men in blue but he has had to wait for two years to make his IPL debut. His one and only assignment in IPL for Mumbai Indians came in 2013 against KKR.

He was not up to the mark as he went wicketless in his solitary match against KKR conceding 34 from four overs.

However, it was his performance in the Champions League T20 final of 2013 that made his way into the Bangalore franchise. Chahal took two for nine runs in just three overs in the final against RCB, guiding Mumbai Indians to victory, following this he was roped in by his current franchise at his base price of 10 lakh.
