After MI player Deepak Chahar missed his team's Eliminator match against GT, former India cricketer Robin Uthappa said, "If he (Deepak) doesn't limp around, the tournament (IPL) is not complete for him." Notably, Deepak has taken 11 wickets in 14 matches in IPL 2025. Mumbai Indians chose to bat first in the match with Rohit Sharma scoring 81 runs.
