Indian star pacer Deepak Chahar has begun training with an aim to make a return to competitive return in the Indian Premier League. Injuries have derailed Deepak Chahar’s promising international career. He is currently not a part of either of the white-ball squads, even though his performances have been quite decent when he was fit.
Deepak was last seen playing for the Indian cricket team in December 2022 and even during that period when he returned from an injury that kept him out for several months as he struggled with the odd niggle. He was ruled out midway following a recurrence of his injury. He was sent back to the NCA.
In fact, earlier the 30-year-old missed the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League after being snapped up for a massive amount at the auction.
Chahar once again recovered and played a Ranji Trophy match for Rajasthan last month. The CSK star bowler did bowl 21 overs and is on a break currently.

With his wife Jaya by his side, Deepak had a fruitful yoga week in Rishikesh. Deepak shared a video of him training on the bank of the river Ganga and wrote:
