Both Deepak Chahar and Mayank Yadav have uncertain futures owing to mid-season injuries, meaning that the current Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) season may be their last.
The main bowler for the Chennai Super Kings, Chahar, is now dealing with a hamstring issue that kept him out of their most recent match against the Punjab Kings. “Deepak’s injury is not looking good,” CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan said, expressing concern over Chahar’s condition. I won’t say he’s out for the season, but it’s dubious,” Cricbuzz stated. Chahar’s absence could be a major blow for CSK, as their next game against the Punjab Kings is this coming Sunday.
Other players’ fitness concerns are already a problem for the Chennai team. Both Matheesha Pathirana and Tushar Deshpande are recovering from minor injuries, so it’s unclear if they’ll be available for the forthcoming game. “Deepak Chahar doesn’t look good,” Coach Stephen Fleming said after the game on Wednesday, expressing concern over Chahar’s health. After the physiotherapist and doctor have a look, I’m hoping for a more favourable assessment because the initial feeling wasn’t fantastic.”
The strain on LSG’s playoff bid is increased by Mayank Yadav’s fitness issues.
Similar to this, Mayank Yadav, who earlier in the season dazzled with his pace for the Lucknow Super Giants, was unable to play due to a persistent back strain. Mayank’s fitness issues have made it uncertain whether he will play in the IPL going forward, even though he is a strong candidate for the national squad.
With twelve points at the moment, Lucknow needs to win at least two more games in order to guarantee a postseason berth. But as the club prepares to play the Knight Riders on Sunday, Mayank’s absence might pose a problem.

In order to improve their standings in the IPL, both CSK and Lucknow desperately need wins after suffering recent losses. But the doubts surrounding their campaigns have grown as a result of important players like Mayank and Chahar suffering injuries. The fans of these teams are worried about their teams’ chances of winning the championship as the IPL season goes on since these players’ futures are in jeopardy.
