Malti Chahar, sister of India fast-bowler Deepak Chahar, posted a special message for her brother after his sensational spell against Bangladesh in the third and final T20I. Chahar picked up 6 wickets for just 7 runs including a hat-trick to help India win the game by 30 runs. With the win, India also wrapped up the the series 2-1.

India needed a solid start with the ball on a good batting pitch after scoring 174 and Deepak Chahar duly obliged. In his very first over of the match, he dismissed Liton Das and Soumya Sarkar in consecutive deliveries to dent the visitors. Skipper Rohit Sharma then pulled the pacer out of attack for the business end of the match.

And with Chahar not bowling, Mohammad Naim and Mohammad Mithun put Bangladesh on the front foot with a 98-run stand. With nothing working out, Rohit recalled Chahar and he made an immediate impact by dismissing Mithun. After his first two overs, Chahar’s figures read an astonishing 2-0-3-3. Shivam Dube then accounted for Mushfiqur Rahim, Naim and Afif Hossain to all but seal the game.

Chahar then made the game memorable by taking the last three wickets on as many balls. He dismissed Shafiul Islam on the final ball of the 18th over before dismissing Mustafizur Rahman and Aminul Islam on the first two balls of the 20th over to complete the hat-trick.

And hours after the game ended, Malti Chahar took to Instagram to state that she was still having goosebumps. Expressing her delight over the performance from her brother, Malti Chahar wrote:

“So so so so so proud of you??? To the hat-trick and best figure 3.2-0-7-6 in international t20??? OMG..I still have goosebumps ?? @deepak_chahar9 love you brother ?? more power to you❤️❤️❤️”
