Pacer Deepak Chahar 바카라˜actually wanted바카라™ Chennai Super Kings to stop bidding for him after it had hurtled past Rs 13 crore during the IPL auction 2022 as he was afraid that it may come in the way of building a strong team.

Bought back by his old franchise for a staggering Rs 14 crore, making him the most expensive Indian bowler at an IPL auction, Chahar said he couldn't imagine playing for any team apart from CSK. 바카라œI wanted to play for CSK because I haven't imagined myself playing in other colour than yellow,바카라 Chahar said.

바카라œAt one point, I thought it (the bid price) was too much. As a CSK player, I also want to build a good team. So after they spent 13 crore, I actually wanted the bidding to stop so I can go to CSK quickly and then we can buy some other players (with the money saved),바카라 he added.

A part of the Indian white-ball team currently, Chahar said in 2018, he was told by franchise owner N Srinivasan that 바카라˜you will play in yellow always바카라™. Since then, Chahar said, he had never brought up the topic of retention with the team management or its talisman Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

바카라œI바카라™ve never spoken about all this to Mahi bhai (captain MS Dhoni) or CSK management,바카라 Chahar said. 바카라œIn 2018, I had met Srinivasan sir, and he has said, 바카라˜you will play in yellow always바카라™. So, I took his word that day and since then I have never spoken about retention. I knew CSK would bid (for me).바카라

As the two-day mega auction progressed, he said the Indian players engaged in the ongoing limited-overs series against the West Indies kept themselves updated on news from Bengaluru, where they were going under the hammer.

바카라œWe (India's T20I squad) were travelling from Ahmedabad to Kolkata, and the whole team was watching the auction. Everyone was saying kitna ho gaya (what's the bid price?) and all that.바카라 The 29-year-old Chahar will represent the Super Kings for fifth season in a row, having been bought by the franchise before IPL 2018 for Rs 80 lakh.

Chahar's only regret now is that he could never play alongside his cousin Rahul Chahar. They did share the dressing room at erstwhile Rising Pune Supergiants, but never played together.

바카라œIn Pune, I played first game, he played second, I played third, and he played fourth, but we never played together. I was thinking this auction we might play together, but maybe some other time. I바카라™ll ask Rahul to come from Punjab for next year,바카라 he said laughing.
