Ex-CSK Star Deepak Chahar Joins India’s Training Ahead of Crucial Oval Test

Former Chennai Super Kings player, Deepak Chahar, has been seen in India’s training camp as they prepare for the decisive fifth Test against England at The Oval. Chahar, though not in the official Test squad, has been assisting the team by bowling in the nets, helping them get ready to face England’s potent pace attack. Chahar has been contributing behind the scenes, providing valuable practice for the Indian batters. His skill in swinging the ball and maintaining a tight line has been helpful for the team. The Indian bowling lineup has been hit hard by injuries, with Akash Deep and Arshdeep Singh missing the fourth Test, and Jasprit Bumrah potentially being rested for the final game. The team also faces injury issues in the batting department, with Rishabh Pant out due to injury, necessitating the inclusion of Dhruv Jurel. Furthermore, Narayan Jagadeesan has been brought in to strengthen the batting lineup. Chahar’s familiarity with English conditions makes him a perfect asset for practice sessions. These practice sessions are particularly significant with the series hanging in the balance. India is aiming to win at The Oval to level the series after showing resilience in the Manchester Test. Chahar’s quiet contributions may prove to be critical as India strives to draw the series.
