Indian pacer Deepak Chahar has revealed a hilarious incident from India's recent tour of Sri Lanka. While Chahar was named in the squad, Rahul Dravid travelled with the team as their head coach. The team was filled with youngsters as the main squad with experienced cricketers were in the United Kingdom for the England Tests. In a recent interview, Chahar spoke about a funny conversation with Dravid over his age. He recalled that when the team had reached the island country for a limited-overs tour, Dravid asked him about his age. When the pacer told the former India captain his age, the legendary cricketer mocked him by asking if he is telling the correct age or the one which is in his records. Dravid outlined that sometimes cricketers get their ages less to have a few more years of playing time. However, Chahar pointed out that he could not have forged his age as his father was working in the Indian Air Force.
