I Never Thought Of This, Not Even In My Dreams - Deepak Chahar

Well, what a day it was for Deepak Chahar at Nagpur? The flamboyant cricketer showed what he is capable of doing for the team when he gets his rhythm right. Breaking quite a few records, Deepak Chahar registered stunning figures of 6/7 in the final T20I to help India seal the game and series as well.

He started off brilliantly by knocking out Liton Das when Washington Sunday held a brilliant catch in the deep and it was quickly followed by the dismissal of Soumya Sarkar. Then he entered back into the action when Rohit Sharma asked him to give a breakthrough in the middle overs, which he did it for his skipper by removing Mohammad Mithun in the middle overs.

Finally, he returned back in the death overs and straightaway knocked out the tail-enders of Bangladesh to bag his maiden five-wicket haul in the T20I format of the game, in fact, in International cricket. He made it even memorable with a beautiful yorker to finish the game in style. It also includes a blistering hat-trick.

I always focus on the next ball – Deepak Chahar

Speaking of the same, Deepak Chahar quoted saying that he had never dreamt of delivering such a magical spell for the Indian National Cricket Team. Further, he revealed stating that he has been working hard on his variations in the death overs to come good for the team.

Further, Deepak Chahar added saying that Rohit Sharma has used him at crucial junctures and he doesn’t want to disappoint either his skipper of the team management, who have counted him as the match-winner. Chahar wants to continue the same for India.

”I never thought of this, not even in my dreams. I have been trying to work hard since my childhood and my efforts have paid off. Rohit was planning to give me the crucial overs and the management wanted to do the same. I always focus on the next ball, I keep doing that until I don’t complete my spell,” Deepak Chahar, who received the man of the match and man of the series said at the post-match presentation.

All in all, it was a stunning day at the office for the flamboyant cricketer. He literally took away the game from Bangladesh with a beautiful display of fast bowling. Now, he pressed his case for the fourth seamer role in India when Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mohammed Shami returns to the side.
