He demonstrated this ability by picking up 8 wickets for just 10 runs against the in form Hyderabad Team. Due to this heroic performance by Deepak Chahar, the Hyderabad Team was bundled out on a meager score of just 21 runs which is also a record for the lowest total in the last 77 years. This performance was supported by the pitch which supported swing bowling for which Deepak Chahar is known for.
