BCCI announced that right-arm pacer Deepak Chahar has been added to the squad for the remainder of the series. Chahar picked up a hamstring injury earlier in the season and missed as many as six IPL league games for Chennai Super Kings. Earlier, he missed last year’s IPL due to a back injury. With the ball in hand, Chahar has picked up 16 and 29 wickets respectively from 13 ODIs and 24 T20 Internationals.
