Chennai Super Kings’ versatile player, Deepak Chahar, brought a touch of humor to the pre-match banter as he shared insights into the upcoming clash in IPL 2024. With the game set to unfold in Hyderabad, Chahar playfully disclosed the curator’s ambitious plans to turn the match into a run-fest.

According to Chahar, the curator in Hyderabad is aiming to surpass the monumental 277-run mark set in a previous encounter held in Vizag. In a jovial tone, he hinted at the curator’s determination to see the boundaries flowing freely and the scoreboard ticking relentlessly.

Chahar shares pitch dynamics

“I think the ball is swinging less, the wickets are pretty flat, last match in Vizag, I asked the curator if he wanted to see 300 runs being scored, he just said that he wanted to break the 277-run record set in Hyderabad (laughs). Last match, KKR made 272 there. I think this mentality should change, they should prepare 200-run pitches. For me, the pitch doesn’t matter, the ball does swing in the 1st over. I’ve played a lot of games, the bounce is always good, there’s something in this wicket for the pacers, it’s not flat. It’s better in the middle overs.”

“Last time the crowd support was 90-10 in favor of CSK” – Deepak Chahar

Reflecting on recent IPL fixtures, Chahar highlighted the trend of high-scoring matches, where teams batting first have breached the 270-run barrier with remarkable ease. He reminisced about the SunRisers’ phenomenal innings, posting a daunting 277 against the Mumbai Indians, followed by a commendable response from the latter with a score of 246. Additionally, he recalled the Kolkata Knight Riders’ dominant performance in Vizag, where they amassed a staggering 272/7 and clinched victory by a massive 106-run margin.

“Anyway, you don’t bowl a lot of bouncers with the new ball. But we did see with Mayank Yadav, he got protection in the deep, the batters will be left thinking, so it does help in the middle and death overs, especially if you use your variations. Last time the crowd support was 90-10 in favour of CSK, today I think it’s around 80-20.”

Despite the curator’s aspirations for a run-laden spectacle, Chahar assured fans that the pitch in Hyderabad isn’t merely a batting paradise. With a mischievous grin, he hinted at some surprises in store, suggesting that seamers might find the conditions favorable for their craft.

In essence, Chahar’s playful revelation not only added an element of anticipation to the forthcoming match but also hinted at the potential for an exhilarating contest between bat and ball, promising entertainment for cricket enthusiasts worldwide. Today in the first innings CSK is rocking in the field with 156 runs in 18.3 over.
