<p>“I was watching social media after reaching my room. A boy had texted me saying, ‘Bhai aap bohot acche bowler ho but ek request hai — agla match mat khelna’ (You are a good bowler but I request you to not play the next match),” Chahar said after the match in a video posted by IPL.</p>

<p>“Expectations are very high and performing in every match is important. So, this is for that guy who messaged me. This performance would not have come if I was not playing. Don’t declare a player bad on the basis his one performance. Please support them," he added.</p>

<p>Deepak Chahar went on to talk about the wicket at Wankhede and said that it is his favourite ground.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Looking at today's wicket and today's performance, I must say that Wankhede is my favourite ground because you get help in the starting (from the pitch)," Chahar told IPL's official website.</p>

<p>"It was a good feeling. It (the spell) came at an important time as we needed to win this game. "It was thus necessary to provide a good start and this was an important match for us and I am very happy that I could contribute to the team's win," Chahar said.</p>

<p>"After the first few matches were high-scoring, there were a lot of meetings about what I needed to do in this particular over and set the field accordingly. "But in the last game, I got a bit of support. But today (on Friday night) plan B, C wasn't needed and plan A worked. So the meetings that we had might help us in the upcoming matches," he said.</p>

<p>Deepak Chahar conceded just 14 runs while scalping four big wickets in four overs including a wicket maiden.&nbsp;</p>
