Rahul Chahar was part of Mumbai Indians' two IPL title winning campaigns (2019 and 2020) and the 22-year-old leg-spinner, who is now part of Punjab Kings, is confident that the Mayank Agarwal-led side will finally be able to clinch that elusive maiden IPL title. Punjab Kings have never won the IPL. Their best performance in IPL history was in the 2014 season (under George Bailey's captaincy) when they entered the final, but lost the title clash by 3 wickets to the Gautam Gambhir-led Kolkata Knight Riders team. In a recent interview with TimesofIndia.com, Chahar talked about Punjab's chances of winning their maiden title this season and more. Chahar, who takes inspiration from the legendary Shane Warne, has claimed 7 wickets in the 4 matches he has played so far in this season.

TimesofIndia.com caught up with Chahar for an exclusive interview and spoke about his IPL experience so far, playing under the tutelage of Anil Kumble at the Punjab Kings, his idol Shane Warne and much more.

Considering our team combination and the way our batsmen are performing, Punjab Kings can win the trophy this time.
