Deepak Chahar, formerly of Chennai Super Kings, is assisting the Indian cricket team as they prepare for the final Test match of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. Chahar was observed bowling in the nets at The Oval, providing valuable practice to the team as they prepare to face England’s pace attack. This is not the first time Chahar has supported the team from behind the scenes; he previously aided the team during the third Test at Lord’s. His skills in swinging the ball and maintaining a tight line have provided crucial practice for Indian batters. India’s bowling unit is facing injury concerns with key players like Akash Deep, Arshdeep Singh, and possibly Jasprit Bumrah unavailable. Furthermore, India has batting concerns, with Rishabh Pant injured and Dhruv Jurel replacing him. Narayan Jagadeesan has also been brought in to bolster the batting lineup. Chahar’s presence, given his experience with English conditions, is a boon for the team’s practice sessions. With the series on the line, these sessions are critical for preparing the batters to counter England’s seam attack. India seeks a win at The Oval to avoid a series loss and level the series. After showing great resolve in the Manchester Test, the team, captained by Shubman Gill, is approaching the final match with confidence, and Chahar’s input is expected to be key.
