Rahul Chahar Player Profile
Like many leggies who make an impact in T20, Rahul Chahar is not a big turner of the ball, but has good loop and drift, and makes subtle use of his variations in length and pace.
Like his cousin Deepak, Chahar plays for Rajasthan in the Ranji Trophy, for whom he made his first-class and List A debuts in 2016-17. Two seasons on, though the team had a dismal outing in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, Chahar was third on the wicket-takers' list for the tournament, with 20.
Rahul Chahar IPL Factfile
- Rahul Chahar was a key member of Mumbai Indians' two IPL title-winning sides at the end of the 2010s. He took 28 wickets in the wins in 2019 and 2020.
- The year after he did just as well, taking 13 wickets and finishing as their second most prolific wicket-taker.
- He was bought by Punjab Kings in 2022 but his numbers were not great in the three seasons he spent there. He was picked by Sunrisers Hyderabad for IPL 2025, where he got just one game.
- He was then picked by CSK, a franchise his cousin Deepak had represented in the past, for IPL 2026.
