Rajasthan pacer Deepak Chahar wants to reunite with MS Dhoni in IPL

Kolkata, Jan 25 (Cricketnmore) Rajasthan pacer Deepak Chahar on Thursday said he is eager to reunite with former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni who was his room-mate last season for Rising Pune Supergiant, in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL).

Punjab won the match by five runs but could not make the final finishing second to Rajasthan on net run-rate.

"I will take medicine and hope to return to action tomorrow," he said.

Ahead of Rajasthan's final against Delhi on Friday at the Eden Gardens, the 25-year old said, "Our players are not much known compared to other states. At the start of the tournament, we all wanted to win and be in the final to make ourselves recognised. Now, it's very important for us to win the trophy.

"We all played with that intention only."

Delhi wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant who has been retained by Delhi Daredevils said: "I'm very excited. I'm already retained so I do not have to think about the auction. My main aim is to keep performing and do well in every match."
