The 15th season of the IPL series is set to begin on March 26 in India. With 8 teams playing so far, 2 new teams have been added since this year. So with a total of 10 teams to play there has been great anticipation among the fans.
In the first match, defending champions Chennai Super Kings will take on Kolkata Knight Riders. Fans are eagerly awaiting which team will win the match to be played at the Mumbai Stadium.
CSK
Deepak Chahar, the CSK team's key player, is out due to an injury. So it is doubtful whether he will play in this match. It is said that Deepak Chahar will not play if the injury does not heal before the IPL series.
Irfan Pathan
Former India fast bowler Irfan Pathan has commented on this. In it, ‘It is not clear how the CSK team is going to fill Deepak Chahar's place. Because Deepak Chahar is the best bowler in powerplay overs. Perhaps if a situation arises where he is unable to play, CSK will give the team a major setback. Irfan Pathan has said that it is doubtful whether Deepak Chahar will be able to put up a good performance like him even if there are young players in the field.
During the recent Sri Lanka series, Deepak Chahar suffered a strain. So he was out in the middle of that series. Now that he is retired, the question has arisen among the fans as to whether he will participate in the IPL series. Deepak Chahar has been instrumental in CSK's victory, taking key wickets in power play overs in several matches.
