Chennai won the title by defeating Gujarat in the final of last season. But this time the path will not be easy for them. The team's experienced player Devon Conway has been injured. He will not be able to play in the initial matches. The biggest strength of CSK is its captain and if we talk about weaknesses, it does not have many big players. If we look at the batting lineup of Chennai Super Kings, Ajinkya Rahane and Rituraj Gaikwad are big players. Experienced player Conway suffered a toe injury. Because of this he will not be able to play in the initial matches. The team has placed a big bet on Sameer Rizvi. Sameer's record in domestic matches is good. Sameer has scored 295 runs in 9 T20 matches. During this period he has also scored 2 half-centuries.
CSK has all-rounders
If we look at the list of CSK all-rounders, it is quite long. Ravindra Jadeja and Moeen Ali have proved to be very important for the team. Shivam Dubey has also performed well in many matches. These players can also make a place in the playing eleven of the initial matches. Mitchell Santner and Nishant Sandhu have also performed well. Jadeja is the most important player of the team. He has played 226 matches in IPL. During this period, 2692 runs have been scored. He has also taken 152 wickets. Jadeja's best performance in a match has been taking 5 wickets for 16 runs.
No experienced players in bowling attack
If we look at the bowling attack of Chennai Super Kings, apart from Deepak Chahar, no one is experienced. Chahar has played 73 IPL matches so far. During this period he has taken 72 wickets. Chahar's best performance in a single match was 4 wickets for 13 runs. CSK also has good bowling options in the form of Mahish Thekshana and Rajyavardhan. But these players do not have much experience.
CSK hopes from Mitchell and Rachin
Chennai bought Daryl Mitchell for Rs 14 crore. Rachin Ravindra was bought for 1.80 crores. Rachin performed brilliantly during the World Cup 2023. He has scored 214 runs in 20 T20 International matches. Also 11 wickets have also been taken. Ravindra's overall performance is good. Talking about Mitchell, he has scored 1260 runs in 63 T20 international matches. He has also taken 8 wickets. Both these players can perform well for CSK this time.
