Most consistent and reliable team in the history of the Indian Premier League, captained by India’s most successful skipper MS Dhoni. They have won the title fours time in the history of the IPL. The upcoming season of IPL might be the last season of their skipper MS Dhoni, and they have been searching for a new skipper, and that’s why they have made their highest bid in the IPL history on the English veteran all-rounder Ben Stokes and acquired him at 16.25 Cr.
Ben is the best replacement for champion Dwayne Bravo, who announced his retirement recently and became the new bowling of CSK. Team management will search for a skipper role for CSK in Ben Stokes, and it will be interesting to see how the team will perform in the upcoming season with two world’s best all-rounders of the T20I format.
One of the other picks of CSK is Kyle Jamieson in 1 Cr; New Zealand’s pacer can bowl in the death overs and hit some huge sixes in the bottom-line batting order. Although they have a blistering opener, Devon Conway, English all-rounder Moeen Ali and New Zealand’s spinner M Santner in the squad. Including Indian batter Ruturaj Gaikwad who can bat very consistently in the IPL, and Shivam Dubey, who can hit enormous sixes in the death overs against any bowler.
