Best buys in IPL 2020 (CSK)

  • Sam Curran- The England all-rounder was picked up by Chennai Super Kings for a bounty of 5.5 crore which is a good buy for a young talent like him. Even being so young he knows how to handle pressure and had a decent IPL last season. He troubled India in test cricket by both ball and bat therefore CSK would definitely use him to take quick wickets in middle overs and play some good knocks when required.
  • Piyush Chawla- The veteran leg-spinner was the highest wicket-taker for KKR in IPL 2019 but was released this season. CSK always believes in experience players and their ability to handle pressure in tough situation. So he can prove as a good choice for super kings in the absence of Harbajan Singh who will be unavailable for this season.

 

Best CSK players to bet on

1. Batsman

  • MS Dhoni- The legendary wicket-keeper batsman has just announced his retirement from international cricket. CSK captain had the highest average in past two seasons and was highest run scorer in IPL 2019. His ability to take the game deep and destroy any bowling attack in the death overs is blinder to bet on. Prokhel predicts that Dhoni may come slightly above in batting order in absence of Suresh Raina and would be more fierce this IPL 2020.
  • Ambati Raydu- He would be opening the batting for CSK this season. His track record with CSK has been incredible and he has proved his mantle. Ambati Raydu would be expected to make some good partnerships in the top order and score runs for the team as he performed in 2018. He has variety of shots and would be difficult to stop once he is set.

            2. Bowlers

  • Deepak Chahar- The pacer has improved himself over the years and has delivered well in IPL 2019 and in national team. He would be looking to swing the new ball and take some quick wickets in the initial phase of the matches. Deepak Chahar is a young talent who has ability to perform in pressure situations and deliver for the team. He would a good player to put your bets on.
  • Lungisani Ngidi- The Caribbean pacer would be looking to attack from the front. He missed last season due to his injury but he is a talented bowler with wide stream of variation up his sleeves. He can bowl at any position hence he would be good choice for MSD to play him in the 11 this season.

3. All rounders

  • Ravindra Jadeja- He has been around CSK for a long while now and it reason is also quite evident. Jadeja is one of the best fielders in the world cricket presently, he is experienced and can bowl at position and his ability to make runs in the lower order and hit big boundaries when needed makes him a must pick for playing 11. He has been there with CSK and proved his worth in important matches.
  • Dwane Bravo- The veteran all-rounder has always given a pleasant surprise with his performance every year. His performance at other leagues has not been so good lately but Bravo is all together a different player when it comes to Chennai Super Kings. He can play crucial knock in the lower order and can finish games for CSK as he did in first match against MI in 2018 IPL. Dwane Bravo has huge variety to variations and can deceive even the world-class batsman.

Chennai Super Kings Winning Odds

Winning Odds for Chennai Super Kings are placed at 5.50. BET NOW to gain maximum profit.

It is hard to keep this team out of the game. Chennai Super Kings has been the most consistent side from the inaugural of IPL in 2008. It has qualified for the playoffs each time and has made 7 times to the final out of nine seasons the team has played. It has won the trophy 3 times which makes it toughest competitor in the lot.

The success of CSK is because of major contribution of driving force MS Dhoni in the team. He is the only captain who has remained with a single franchise from the start and thus makes sure to get the best out of their players. CSK has always believed in experience, one of the reasons that it performs consistently well in the pressure situation. Hence the winning odds are always high for Chennai Super Kings.

This season will be challenging for CSK as their key player Suresh Raina may miss out the whole season. Dwane Bravo will also not be present in initial stage due to CPL and Harbajan Singh has also made himself unavailable. But there will be opportunity for other young talents to fill their shoes and everyone will be eager to see MS Dhoni in action after 485 days.

CSK Strengths

The biggest strength of Chennai Super Kings is its captain MS Dhoni, who is the wizard of the game and has the highest win percentage by any captain. He knows how to get the best out of his players and reads the situation very easily.

Experience which CSK carries works in its favour every time. In pressure situation an experienced player knows how to handle the situation and turn a bad day into a win which the team has done number of times. Also the balance in the side is one of the best, it has players who can bat down the order till 9th player and has 5-6 bowling options in hand every time they come on field.

CSK Weakness

There are not many weak points in Chennai Super Kings. One thing which everyone knows can come out to be disadvantage with the team is the fitness. It is not one of the best when it comes to fitness level of players as most of the players are in their late thirties and are no longer playing International cricket. Thus the age is a factor in the players and many of them are far away from their career peak.

However, more importantly the players are prone to injuries, which we saw in last season. But considering all these points, CSK has performed well and has not led these factors affect the result of the game.
