IPL 2024 CSK Best Playing XII : The squad of Chennai Super Kings i.e. CSK, captained by MS Dhoni, is once again ready for the next season of IPL. Like every time, CSK management has tried its best to remove the shortcomings that were left in the team. This time again the team looks very strong and after winning the IPL title five times, the team will again be seen claiming the trophy. Before the IPL starts, let us try to understand how the entire CSK team looks. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the team and what could be the playing XI of the team when it comes to play for the first time in IPL 2024. Here we are talking about playing XII because last year the impact player rule was introduced in IPL, that is, a player can be changed at any time. Therefore here we will talk about 12 players and not 11.
CSK completes 25 players, total of 8 foreign players also included
As per the rules of IPL, CSK has completed 25 players in its squad, out of which 8 foreign players are also seen in the team. In the IPL 2024 auction, the team has won the young New Zealand player Rachin Ravindra for only Rs 1.8 crore, while the team has once again managed to get Shardul Thakur in its fold. The team had to spend Rs 4 crore for him. The team has signed Daryl Mitchell for Rs 14 crore, while young Sameer Rizvi has cost Rs 8.4 crore. Mustafizur Rahman has been taken for only Rs 2 crore.
Sameer Rizvi will fill the void of Ambati Rayudu, Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell will compensate for Ben Stokes.
Ambati Rayudu, who has performed well in the middle order for Chennai Super Kings for many years, will no longer be seen as he has announced his retirement from IPL as well. It is believed that that is why the team has spent such a huge amount on Sameer Rizvi, so that he can remain with the team for a long time and the space left by Rayudu’s departure can be filled. Ben Stokes will not play next year’s IPL, the team had released him. Two foreign players have also joined the team in their place. Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell. It seems difficult for both of them to get a place together in the playing eleven, but it is certain that one of the two players will definitely be seen playing alternately. Who will bat in the middle order and has the ability to take wickets through bowling also.
The team’s batting became stronger with the return of Shardul Thakur.
With the return of Shardul Thakur, while the team’s bowling has become stronger, it should not be forgotten that he can contribute in batting as well. MS Dhoni knows very well when, where and how to use Shardul Thakur. Shardul has been with this team for a long time, so it will not take much time for him to integrate with the team. He is a match winner in a way. Sri Lankan fast bowler Mathisa Pathirana is troubled by his injuries and injuries. Although Pathirana will be the first choice to join the playing eleven, but if he is unable to play due to some reason, then the team has also kept Mustafizur Rahman in his place. Rahman will not play all the matches, but he will be given a chance in between. That is, wherever the team found shortcomings, every effort has been made to eliminate them.
