Chennai Super Kings (CSK) pacer Deepak Chahar was seen getting involved in a hilarious moment that involved skipper MS Dhoni during the clash against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Notably, CSK registered their third win of the IPL 2023 season against their fierce rivals, RCB, at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Monday, April 17.
In the first innings, the visiting team was put into bat first and displayed a scintillating show, owing to the crucial knocks from Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane, and Shivam Dube. While Conway scored 83 off 45 balls, Rahane and Dube got 37 and 52 runs, respectively to help the side to attain a humongous 226-run total.

However, in the midst of the first innings, Deepak Chahar, who was sidelined due to a hamstring injury, was caught up in a hilarious incident. The pacer, who was seated in the dugout, was startled when skipper MS Dhoni began shadow batting during the high-octane clash. In the video, Deepak can be seen visibly puzzled after Dhoni padded up and began to shadow batting in front of him in the dugout. Soon after the skipper brought his bat close to Deepak’s face, the latter left his seat in order to not get hit.
Here is the video of the incident:
