WATCH- Rohit Sharma salutes Deepak Chahar in 3rd T20I
The fast bowler Deepak Chahar has been a consistent wicket taker for the Chennai Super Kings in the IPL. This was the reason he was fast-tracked to the Indian team in 2018. Until the New Zealand T20I series in 2021, he has picked up 23 wickets in 17 T20I appearances. He was average with only 3 wickets in the series, but impressed the captain Rohit Sharma by his ball striking capabilities.

It was a really good series win. Everyone played really well right through the series. It feels good, nice to start well. We are also quite realistic. We have to keep our feet on the ground and be a bit realistic about this win. Not easy for NZ to play a World Cup final and then to turn up three days later to play three games in six days, was never going to be easy for them. With some of our players coming back in, it will definitely make the side stronger.
