XtraTime Web Desk: Most people says that cricket is now a batsman's game especially in T20s where we see over 200 runs scored in 20 overs and again the chasing team chased it down at an ease with one or two overs left as well. Despite of all these  one pacer is continuously doing well in this season's IPL and he is CSK's prime first bowler Deepak Chahar. So far Dhoni is using him in the power play and he is the only bowler who has been bowling four overs of his quota continuously without any break. In last five matches he bowled four back to back overs in three matches. In these five games  he has taken five wickets so far with an economy rate of 6.15 which is very good in T20s. The Agra-born medium pacer was a part of the Rajasthan Royals squad in 2012, donned the RPS jersey for two seasons and currently representing the Chennai Super Kings in the twelfth edition of the league. Chahar plays for the state side Rajasthan in domestic cricket. In the season-opener against Hyderabad in 2010-11, Chahar picked up eight wickets for 10 runs. In his spectacular debut season, he took a total of 40 wickets. Injuries and illness forced him to miss a significant portion of his second first-class season.
