Focused on coming back stronger in the New Year, Deepak Chahar thinks he also needs to be selective in terms of the matches he plays. “The stress fracture in my back is mainly due to playing excess matches. Else, I won’t be able to survive,” Chahar told The Telegraph from his residence in Agra. Asked if by being selective he means to cut down on the number of IPL matches too, Chahar replied: “Not really, because match fitness is also important. In two months, you have to play 14 matches in the IPL, which is not much.
