Deepak Chahar Not Playing KKR vs CSK IPL 2023

The crucial news development coming from the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) camp is that their premier pacer Deepak Chahar is still not available for selection in their seventh encounter of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The Chennai Super Kings will definitely be feeling very much high on confidence as they have performed really well recently in the ongoing 16th edition of the IPL. CSK registered two brilliant back-to-back victories against Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bangalore recently in IPL 2023.

KKR vs CSK: Why is Deepak Chahar Not Playing Today’s Match IPL?

It is a big setback for the Chennai Super Kings that their star new ball pace bowler Deepak Chahar is still not part of the CSK playing 11 in today’s KKR vs CSK match. Earlier in the IPL 2023 season, Chahar once again pulled off his hamstring during the match against Mumbai Indians where he bowled just a single over and left the field. He has missed the last few games for the Chennai Super Kings against Rajasthan Royals, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Sunrisers Hyderabad and will also miss this match against Kolkata Knight Riders. However, the good news is that Deepak has started bowling in the nets which is a big positive sign, but it still remains to be seen when will the 30-year-old fast bowler attain complete fitness and be available for selection in IPL 2023. Deepak Chahar had not bowled well in the three matches he played for CSK this year as he went wicketless and conceded runs at an economy rate of over 10.
