Deepak Chahar Reports Theft of Three Cricket Bats Worth Rs 1.5 Lakh from Practice Ground
Indian cricketer Deepak Chahar reported that three of his player-edition cricket bats, valued at around Rs 1.5 lakh, were allegedly stolen from a practice ground in Agra. He shared a video on social media describing the incident and humorously asked whether he should approach the police, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, or Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Chahar appealed for the bats' return, suggesting the thief might not have known their value, and expressed willingness to offer money if needed. No formal complaint had been filed at the time.
