Chennai Super Kings put everything at stake in the mega auction of IPL 2022 to buy Deepak Chahar. Many teams wanted to buy Deepak Chahar on the first day, but Chennai made the highest bid in their history to get their player back. Chennai spent Rs 14 crore to buy Deepak Chahar. Deepak Chahar was to be bought by Chennai in 2018 for just Rs 80 lakh and now his IPL salary has exceeded that of team captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Deepak Chahar has given a heart-winning answer even though he has more salary than Dhoni. Simultaneously, he also said that there was a time when he wanted to stop the bidding.
On being paid more than Dhoni, former player Mohammad Kaif asked Deepak Chahar on Star Sports that now his salary has become more than Dhoni. Dhoni will get 12 crores and you are 14 crores, people will discuss a lot about it. To this, Deepak Chahar gave a heart-winning reply. Chahar said, "If it was in Dhoni's hand, he would not have taken a single rupee. Chennai wanted to retain him at number one but he himself refused. Dhoni plays only to build a team, not for the money."
On rejoining the same Chennai Super Kings, Deepak Chahar told an interesting thing. Deepak Chahar said that in the year 2018, he was told by Chennai Super Kings owner N Srinivasan that you will always be in Chennai now. Chennai Super Kings' passion for Deepak also looked something similar. Deepak Chahar revealed due to the discussion on Star Sports that he wanted to stop the bidding on himself. Deepak Chahar said, "When the bid on me went up to 12 to 13 crore, I thought the bid should stop now. We have to build a good team as well."
