Chennai Super Kings (CSK) outlasted Rajasthan Royals (RR), SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Delhi Capitals (DC) in the bidding war at IPL auction 2022 here on Saturday to sign him for Rs 14 crore.

With 58 wickets in his kitty during the four seasons in the Yellow Army, Chahar was instrumental in its title wins in the 2018 and 2021 editions. In 2018, CSK had bought Chahar for Rs 80 lakh.
