Dubai, Sep 22 (TIWN) Chennai Super Kings (CSK) pacer Deepak Chahar has revealed skipper M.S. Dhoni prefers players who can contribute in all departments, especially in the shortest format of the game.

It was former India captain Dhoni who got Chahar into now-defunct Rising Pune Supergiant in IPL 2016 before also drafting him into three-time winners CSK.

“Generally, you don’t give the old ball to bowlers who have a pace of 120-125 km/h but when I was playing for RPS and even for CSK I was bowling at around 140 but still he didn't give me the ball in the death,” Chahar said, throwing light on his initial journey under Dhoni, regarded as one of the greatest white-ball captains of all time.
