राजस्थान का ऐसा प्लेयर जिसने सैलरी के मामले में धोनी को भी पीछे छोड़ा

साल 1992 में आगरा में जन्मे दीपक चाहर का परिवार राजस्थान के गंगानगर जिले में शिफ्ट हो गया क्योंकि उनके पिता लोकेंद्र सिंह चाहर की पोस्टिंग सूरतगढ़ में हो गई थी.

चाहर ने उत्तरी राजस्थान के हनुमानगढ़ में अनुभवी कोच नवेंदु त्यागी की मार्गदर्शन में डिवीजनल क्रिकेट खेलना शुरू किया.

दीपक चाहर के पिता अपने बेटे की प्रतिभा से काफी प्रभावित थे. दीपक को क्रिकेटर बनाने के उन्होंने एयर फोर्स की नौकरी भी छोड़ दी.

दीपक की मेहनत रंग लाई, जब साल 2010 में 18 साल की उम्र में उन्होंने राजस्थान के लिए रणजी ट्रॉफी में डेब्यू किया.

उस मैच में उन्होंने हैदराबाद के खिलाफ पहली पारी में 10 रन देकर आठ विकेट झटक लिए थे. इस गेंदबाजी के चलते हैदराबाद की टीम केवल 21 रन पर सिमट गई थी, जो रणजी ट्रॉफी इतिहास का सबसे छोटा स्कोर है.

दीपक के पिता व कोच लोकेंद्र चाहर का कहना है कि दीपक को ऑलराउंडर होने का फायदा मिला है. इसके अलावा दीपक जैसा स्विंग बॉलर कहीं नहीं है.

फिर IPL 2018 से पहले CSK ने दीपक चाहर को 80 लाख रुपये में खरीदा. यहां से चाहर के करियर को एक नई दिशा मिली और उन्हें धोनी से काफी कुछ सीखने को मिला.

IPL 2022 की मेगा नीलामी में चाहर को 14 करोड़ रुपए की भारी भरकम कीमत पर CSK ने अपने पाले में कर लिया था. अब दीपक IPL में चेन्नई के कप्तान धोनी से ज्यादा सैलरी पाने वाले हैं.

2018 में ही चाहर ने भारत के लिए अपना वनडे एवं टी20 डेब्यू किया. चाहर अब तक 13 वनडे और 24 टी20 इंटरनेशनल मुकाबलों में भाग ले चुके हैं.
