Star player ruled out for two weeks with hamstring injury

The pacer has scalped 6 wickets so far this season at an average of 23.17.

Chahar has been an integral part of the Chennai based outfit, playing in all 7 games.

Interestingly, they have managed to take the top position despite some of their stars missing the crucial games due to injuries.

Now, they have received another major blow as their important bowler is set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Chahar picked up his hamstring while bowling his third over. He left the field immediately and did not return back in defense of 170 runs.

The 24-year-old is expected to be out of action for two weeks, according to head coach Stephen Fleming.

Pacer Deepak Chahar has picked hamstring injury during their defeat to Mumbai Indians in Pune.

Chennai have won 5 of their 7 encounters and accumulated 10 points.

Despite an 8-wicket defeat to Mumbai Indians on Saturday, Chennai Super Kings stand tall in the points table.

The MS Dhoni-led side has been one of the most consistent performers in the 11th edition of the Indian Premier League.
