Target Players of the Chennai Super Kings
The Super King’s lineup looks good but needs a great finisher in their squad. The reason is the form of their middle order. Even looking at the age factor, Dhoni’s finishing role might look a bit questionable.
As a result, they might look for a finisher in the auction and an Indian spinner who can replace Theekshana. So that they can have an overseas pace bowler who can bowl in the death.
- Shahrukh Khan (Increase their finishing power)
- Manish Pandey (Strengthen their middle order)
- KS Bharat (Strengthen their middle order)
- Shardul Thakur (Strengthen their death bowling)
- Pat Cummins (Strengthen their death bowling)
- Murgan Ashwin (Indian alternate for Theekshana)
- Gerald Coetzee (Strengthen their pace attack)
