Indian cricketer Deepak Chahar says three expensive cricket bats are stolen from his practice area, and he shares the incident in a social media video that goes viral. He estimates the total value of the bats at about ₹1.5 lakh and expresses surprise that the thief may not understand their significance.
In the video, Chahar describes the bats as player-edition models and says they are taken from the practice venue on Monday evening. He asks followers what he should do next, suggesting options such as informing the authorities or contacting the brand for replacements. One outlet notes that he also jokes about whether he should approach the police or seek help from Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath or Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The coverage focuses on the same core account—Chahar’s claim of the theft and the approximate value—while differing mainly in emphasis. Times of India highlights his worry and a light-hearted remark about praying for the bats’ return, while Free Press Journal details the exact timing he mentions and the specific public figures he references. Both treat the incident as described by Chahar and widely circulated online.
