MS Dhoni’s CSK will defend their title in the 2024 season. Chennai has one of the strongest squads in the 2024 season. Their team has no such weak points, but their fast bowling looks weak compared to other departments. In top order, they have two young openers, Ruturaj Gaikwad and the 2023 emerging player of the year, Rachin Ravindra of New Zealand. At No.3 they have all-rounder and destructive batsman, Shivam Dube.
In the middle order, they have a combination of both stable and explosive batters. At No.4 they have New Zealand’s all-rounder Daryl Mitchell who was in great form in 2023. Sameer Rizvi who was a domestic star in 2023 is part of CSK in the 2024 season. At No.6 they have one of the best all-rounders in cricket, Ravindra Jadeja. MS Dhoni comes at No.7 to provide what he does best, finishing.
Their bowling department consists of three pacers, Shardul Thakur who can also contribute with the bat, and Deepak Chahar who is now available to play the complete season. He will be their main bowler, and Matheesha Pathirana of Sri Lanka who was outstanding for CSK in death overs. Their main spinner will be Sri Lanka’s Maheesh Theekshana.
