More success in the Vizzy trophy in 1967 led to his selection in the Maharashtra [[Ranji Trophy|Ranji]] team. Chauhan's first hundred came next year when he was first in and last out against [[Mumbai cricket team|Bombay]] on a rain affected wicket where the first six wickets fell for 52. He scored 103 against South Zone in the [[Duleep Trophy]] final against five Test bowlers and was selected to play for India in 1969–70.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2013-03-11|title=Ranji Trophy 1948-49: Bombay and Maharashtra engage in record run-feast|url=https://www.cricketcountry.com/articles/ranji-trophy-1948-49-bombay-and-maharashtra-engage-in-record-run-feast-23892|access-date=2020-08-19|website=Cricket Country|language=en-US}}</ref>

==Test cricket ==
Chauhan made his Test debut against [[New Zealand cricket team|New Zealand]] at the [[Brabourne Stadium|Bombay]].

In 1976–77, he scored 158 against Haryana (with a fractured jaw), 200 v Punjab, 147 v Karnataka and 150 against the Central Zone.

==Comeback==
Chauhan scored 157 against [[Victorian Bushrangers|Victoria]] in his first match of the tour. It took him 516 minutes and included just two fours.

Chauhan returned to the Indian team for the second Test at [[WACA Ground|Perth]] and hit 88 in his very first innings. From then he missed only one Test till the end of his career and, except for one occasion, opened with Gavaskar every time. At [[Gaddafi Stadium|Lahore]] against [[Pakistani cricket team|Pakistan]] they added 192, and 117 & 153 against [[West Indian cricket team|West Indies]] at [[Wankhede Stadium|Bombay]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-08-16|title=Former India cricketer Chetan Chauhan passes away due to Covid-19|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/former-india-cricketer-chetan-chauhan-passes-away/story-sRdL9L9NwogwAnh1mAz3ZI.html|access-date=2020-08-18|website=Hindustan Times|language=en}}</ref>

In England in 1979, they put on 213 in the second innings at [[The Oval]] when India missed the target of 438 by nine runs. Against Australia in 1980–81, Chauhan scored 249 runs in three Tests to Gavaskar's 118. He missed a hundred by three runs in [[Adelaide Oval|Adelaide]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Yahoo Cricket|url=https://cricket.yahoo.net/news/remembering-chetan-chauhan-man-gavaskar-173917290|access-date=2020-09-29|website=cricket.yahoo.net}}</ref> At [[Melbourne cricket ground|Melbourne]] in the next Test, he scored 85 and added 165 with Gavaskar before the latter was given out lbw to [[Dennis Lillee]].

==Accomplishments==
* Chauhan was the first Test cricketer to finish his Test career with over 2000 runs but without a century. As of 15 August 2007, [[Shane Warne]] (3154 runs) is the only other player with a similar record. Four others, [[Trevor Goddard (cricketer)|Trevor Goddard]] (2516 with one hundred), [[Alistair Campbell (cricketer)|Alistair Campbell]] (2858 with two hundreds), [[Chaminda Vaas]] (3089 with one hundred) and [[Anil Kumble]] (2,506 with one hundred), reached their first hundred after scoring more than 2000 runs. Goddard was the first to reach 2000 runs without a century but he extended the same innings to 112 [http://stats.cricinfo.com/guru?sdb=player;playerid=1018;class=testplayer;filter=basic;team=0;opposition=0;notopposition=0;season=0;homeaway=0;continent=0;country=0;notcountry=0;groundid=0;startdefault=1955-06-09;start=1955-06-09;enddefault=1970-02-24;end=1970-02-24;tourneyid=0;finals=0;daynight=0;toss=0;scheduledovers=0;scheduleddays=0;innings=0;result=0;followon=0;seriesresult=0;captain=0;keeper=0;dnp=0;recent=;viewtype=bat_cumulative;runslow=;runshigh=;batposition=0;dismissal=0;bowposition=0;ballslow=;ballshigh=;bpof=0;overslow=;overshigh=;conclow=;conchigh=;wicketslow=;wicketshigh=;dismissalslow=;dismissalshigh=;caughtlow=;caughthigh=;caughttype=0;stumpedlow=;stumpedhigh=;csearch=;submit=1;.cgifields=viewtype]. .
