Indian Premier League, over the years, has given birth to multiple rags-to-riches stories. In 2023, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rinku Singh were the fortunate ones as they established their authority after struggling for the majority of the time. Thus, IPL not only shaped the careers of young cricketers, but also gave a lot of cricketers the financial security that everyone needs in order to sustain. Speaking about the same, India cricketer Deepak Chahar revealed how it also helped cricketers to gain a lot of confidence as well.

Citing the example of Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav, Chahar mentioned that since they have financial security because of IPL, the cricketers can play a fearless brand of cricket and go for Hollywood shots right from the start. Notably, this side of IPL often goes unrecognised as finance is not just helping a cricketer sustain but also giving the confidence of playing their natural shots at the international level.

“What IPL has given to Indian cricket team and players.. means a lot. First of all, it’s a good platform. You are playing in front of the audience for the first time. The pressure of playing in front of 40000-50000 people. Not everyone can handle everything. One witnesses that in IPL. The one who is playing in the IPL is aware of the pressure you’ll have while playing for India. In fact, you will feel motivated there because you are playing for the country,” Chahar said in the latest episode of Breakfast with Champions.

"Also, you don’t have financial crisis. Today, youngsters don’t face any financial crisis before playing for India. They are already well-paid in the IPL. That’s why players like Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar (Yadav) can hit a six in the very first ball in international cricket. Or else, no one would have dared to hit a six on the very first ball. They think that ‘one ball is nothing, I have talent, I can earn money’” Chahar added.

Notably, Chahar has picked up 12 wickets in nine matches in the ongoing IPL 2023. He has played an important part for CSK in the ongoing season and if he manages to get going, the four-time champions can dream of adding one more in their kitty.
