Chahar has been a part of the Super Kings side since 2018 and has picked up 58 wickets across the four seasons. He was once again picked up by the Super Kings ahead of the 2022 season in the IPL player auction.

Deepak will be paid entire amount for IPL 2022 season despite not making it to the squad due to injury. This is because he has not pulled out due to any other reason but injury and also because he is a centrally contracted player of BCCI. Players who are under BCCI contracts are insured and receive the IPL amount despite injury.
