Chennai Super Kings

History:

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) was founded in 2008 and is one of the most successful franchises throughout the Indian Premier League (IPL). India Cements owns the squad and is captained by the legendary Indian cricketer MS Dhoni. The team has consistently performed well in the IPL, making it to the playoffs in every season they have participated in.

Notable Players:

  • MS Dhoni: Dhoni is one of the greatest Indian cricketers of all time and has been an integral part of the CSK team since its inception. He has led the team to three IPL titles and is known for his calm and composed leadership style.
  • Suresh Raina: Raina is a prolific run-scorer and a consistent performer for CSK. He is the second-highest run-scorer in IPL history and has been essential to the prosperity of the squad.
  • Ravindra Jadeja: Jadeja is a versatile all-rounder who has significantly contributed to CSK’s success. He is known for his sharp fielding, accurate bowling, and explosive batting.

Achievements:

  • CSK has a remarkable track record in the IPL, winning the tournament three times (2010, 2011, and 2018) and finishing as runners-up four times (2008, 2012, 2013, and 2015). In addition, they have won the Champions League T20 twice (2010 and 2014).
  • Under the captaincy of Dhoni, CSK has achieved many milestones, including reaching the playoffs in every season they have participated in (except for the two seasons they were suspended). The team has also established a reputation for consistency and excellence, with a win percentage of 60.8% in the IPL.
  • CSK’s success can be attributed to its strong team culture, excellent leadership, and a balanced squad that includes experienced veterans and promising young players. With the return of Dhoni as captain and the addition of new players, CSK is poised to continue its success in the upcoming IPL seasons.

When CSK claimed their fourth league championship in 2021, MS Dhoni added another accomplishment to his resume. One of the four players kept by the club before the league’s 2022 season was MS Dhoni, who was paid INR 12 crore. MS Dhoni, a hitting juggernaut, can dismantle various bowling combinations himself. The gleaming trophies in the trophy cases at CSK are a testament to his exceptional leadership skills. His coolness and poise make for a deadly combo on the cricket field, along with a keen cricketing intellect.

For the league’s first eight seasons, he served as the face of the Chennai Super Kings, guiding them to two championships (in 2010 and 2011) and four runner-up results. He subsequently became the first player the Rising Pune Supergiant selected in the league’s ninth season. And once more, he was the first player kept by CSK before the 2018 IPL Player Auction. The league’s 2018 season came to a magical conclusion, with the Chennai Super Kings adding another gleaming prize to their collection. Under the direction of MS Dhoni, the CSK won the league’s 2019 season and advanced to the championship game. MS Dhoni retired after a 16-year, successful tenure with Team India, but he was spotted wearing the CSK colors again in 2020.

  • Batting Style: Right-handed
  • Bowling Style: Right-arm Off-spin

When Rayudu, once hailed as India’s upcoming batting prodigy, scored 177 runs as a 16-year-old against an England U-19 team in 2002, his existence was made known.

ALL ROUNDERS

Ravindra Jadeja

Ravindra Jadeja
  • Matches: 210  
  • RUNS: 2502
  • Wickets: 132
  • Role: All-rounder
  • Batting Style: Left-handed
  • Bowling Style: Left-arm Orthodox Spin
  • Nationality: Indian
  • DOB : 06 December 1988
  • IPL Debut: 2008

Because of Jadeja’s continued enthusiasm for runs and wickets before the IPL 2022 season, CSK kept him on at the highest pay. The outstanding all-arounder was retained for INR 16 million. After the IPL 2018 Player Auction, CSK included him as their third player. Ravindra Jadeja was always there for MS Dhoni when he needed to break up a partnership, and the left arm frequently delivered. He gives Dhoni the extra room to play a second batter if required. Jadeja has been an enigma ever since he made his international cricket début. He participated in the 2008 World Cup in Malaysia for India’s U-19 cricket team, which took first place. His captain, Shane Warne, named him “Rockstar” for the IPL 2008 performance that helped Rajasthan Royals win the title. The player who paid Chennai Super Kings the most money in the 2012 IPL player auction was Jadeja, who went for about Rs. 9.8 Crore. Before joining CSK for the league’s eleventh season, Jadeja played for the Gujarat Lions for two seasons. He has been a crucial part of them ever since.

Mitchell Santner

Mitchell Santner
  • Matches: 12
  • Runs:54
  • Wickets: 10
  • Role: Bowling all-rounder
  • Batting Style: Left-handed
  • Bowling Style: Left-arm Orthodox
  • Nationality: New Zealander
  • DOB: February 05, 1992
  • IPL Debut: 2019

In the league’s 2022 season, the Kiwi all-rounder will once more represent the CSK. Santner, a capable bowler and helpful batsman, was purchased by CSK for INR 1.9 crore at the 2022 Mega Auction. Santner, a Kiwi spinner, was one of CSK’s most cost-effective purchases in 2018, going for just INR 50 lacs. When Daniel Vettori left the team, Santner was given his chance to play for New Zealand, and in just his first game, Santner wowed the judges with his bat rather than his ball-handling skills.

Santner has been a promising player since his start, despite experiencing some ups and downs in cricket. Santner is an excellent defender and a valuable hitter later in the lineup.

Shivam Dube

Shivam Dube
  • Matches: 0
  • Runs:0
  • Wickets: 0
  • Role: All-rounder
  • Batting Style: Left-handed
  • Bowling Style: Medium Seam
  • Nationality: Indian
  • DOB: June 26, 1993
  • IPL Debut: 2019

At the IPL 2022 Mega Auction, CSK paid INR 4 crore for Shivam Dube, a capable middle-order batsman and useful medium bowler. Because there is so much curiosity about this all-around player in the sale, Dube’s starting price of 50 lakhs increased to INR 4 crore. The Mumbai-born all-rounder has garnered attention for his fearless hitting and bowling performances. Before joining the Mumbai senior squad, Shivam Dube played juvenile cricket for his state. In the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in January 2016, he made his Twenty20 debut for Mumbai. A year later, he made his one-day début for the state side. On the closing day of Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy encounter against Baroda, Dube made news by smashing five sixes in five balls off left-arm spinner Swapnil Singh, just days before the Player Auction leading up to the 2019 IPL. As one might expect, he drew fierce bidding at the sale and was ultimately acquired by the Royal Challengers Bangalore for a price of INR 5 cr. Shivam Dube joined Rajasthan Royals for INR 4.40 Cr. after playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore during IPL 2019 and IPL 2020. The Indian all-rounder is known for hitting the cricket ball cleanly and has some skill with the bat, thanks to his medium speed. Dube, who has participated in 24 IPL contests, is eager to flourish for the Chennai club in the 2022 IPL.

Rajvardhan, who is 19 years old, played for Team India in the U19 Cricket World Cup, which had just ended. Rajvardhan, a fiery fast bowler who can also bat for power and be used as a finisher, attracted much attention in the bidding room before being selected by CSK for INR 1.5 crore. Watching MS Dhoni make use of this kid’s skills will be fascinating.

Deepak Chahar

Deepak Chahar
  • Matches: 63
  • Runs:79
  • Wickets: 59
  • Role: Bowler
  • Batting Style: Right-handed
  • Bowling Style: Right-arm Medium
  • Nationality: Indian
  • DOB: August 07, 1992
  • IPL Debut: 2016

For the 2022 season of the division, CSK boy Deepak Chahar is returning with the team. It was a competitive bidding battle for the swing spinner, with SRH and Delhi Capitals leading before RR and CSK joined them. CSK had decided to reinstate their player and had ultimately been successful in doing so for a cost of INR 14 crore. Deepak Chahar, a medium-speed born in Agra, played for the Rajasthan Royals in 2012, wearing the RPS uniform for two seasons before being acquired by the Chennai Super Kings in the league’s eleventh season. Chahar has advanced through the levels, and his capacity to swing the new ball both ways with control makes him significantly more dangerous at the summit. The buzz of the town has been Chahar’s recent exploits, a match-winning knock against Sri Lanka and a 34 ball 54 against South Africa. Chahar also can score valuable runs later down the order. The Chennai Super Kings selected Deepak before the 2018 season, and the medium-pacer had a breakout IPL season, claiming 10 wickets in 12 games. After that, he received a limited-overs cricket call-up from India as compensation.
