IPL 2018, SRH vs CSK: 5 talking points

#2 Deepak Chahar’s damaging spell

Deepak Chahar took a brilliant spell

Sunrisers Hyderabad were off to a shaky start in their run chase and the only reason behind that was Deepak Chahar. Chahar opened the bowling for CSK with a wicket-maiden, dismissing Ricky Bhui. In his second over, Chahar got rid of Manish Pandey thanks to a brilliant out-swinger which Pandey edged towards third man where Karn Sharma took a simple catch.

In his third over, Chahar dismissed Deepak Hooda to worsen the 2016 winners’ misery. He could have bowled another wicket-maiden but Kane Williamson smashed a six in that over which was the only runs he conceded. Chahar ended his final over by giving away only five runs. He ended his spell with 3/15 from four overs.
