3 funniest Deepak Chahar moments in the IPL

One of the finds of former Indian Coach Greg Chappell, Deepak Chahar, turned 31 on August 7. He has attained mastery in the art of swing bowling and smokes some lusty blows down the order.

But besides his skillset, he is the kind of character who likes to be witty while keeping the environment light.

His captain at Chennai Super Kings (CSK), MS Dhoni, with whom he has been playing since Rising Pune Supergiant days, described Chahar as follows:

"Deepak Chahar is like a drug; if he is not there, you would think, Where is he? If he is around, you would think, Why is he here? The good part is that he is maturing, but he takes time, and that is the problem; in my lifetime, I won’t see him matured (smiles)."

On his birthday, we will discuss some of his hilarious moments, which made everyone have a laughter riot, and wish him a very happy birthday.

#3 Pleading with Dhoni for his autograph

In what turned out to be a riveting final, Chennai Super Kings defeated Gujarat Titans to win their fifth IPL title in 2023. With CSK storming past the finish line, legendary skipper MS Dhoni became the focus of everyone's attention. Nobody wanted to miss out on their 'Dhoni moment' and express their gratitude to him.

Deepak Chahar decided to have MS Dhoni sign his autograph on his shirt, but the legend kept refusing it. This was due to the seamer dropping a sitter of Shubman Gill at short fine leg in the first half of the game. Chahar pleaded with the former Indian captain to give him an autograph. This whole scene was enough to make everyone laugh.

Ultimately, after all his efforts, the CSK captain obliged and gave Chahar his autograph.
