It's going to be a great season for Chennai Super Kings. All are waiting for Mahendra Singh Dhoni's comeback. Last year, CSK was outstanding throughout the season and lost the final by 1 run😟. Here is the full squad for CSK this season.

Chennai Super Kings

They spent 14.45 Cr this year

Brought:
Sam Curran - 5.5 Cr
Josh Hazlewood - 2 Cr
 Piyush Chawla - 6.75 Cr 
R Sai Kishore - 20 lakh

Retained Squad: MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, Dwayne Bravo, Shane Watson, Imran Tahir, Faf du Plessis, Kedar Jadhav, Suresh Raina, Rituraj Gaikwad, N Jagadeesan, KM Asif, Deepak Chahar, Shradul Thakur, Monu Singh, Karn Sharma, Lungi Ndigi, Mitchell Santner

16 Indian players and 8 Overseas players

CSK is a great side since the start of IPL. What makes it great is 
  • Allowing players to play their own game
  • If the players are in pressure, Dhoni is there is back them
  • The trust of Dhoni in players. No captain would place the player if he fails continuously. Dhoni has that trust in Shane Watson what helped Watto to deliver in play-offs. No one could forget his heroics in the final game vs CSK
  • Produced great spinners like Ashwin, Jadeja, Jakati.
  • Close finishes as they have the best finisher in this game.

CSK has the powers they wanted. CSK has India's great Captain, Strong opening, and Middle-order, Spin Department maintains the economy in middle overs. The only problem they have since their Comeback is Death Bowling. Can Hazelwood solve their Death bowling woes?


CSK has invested a lot of Piyush Chawla ( 6.75 Cr ).CSK spin department already consists of Jadeja, Harbhajan, Tahir, Santner, Karn Sharma. Who can make into playing 11 (Comment)__.
My choice Jadeja, Tahir, Harbhajan (In Chennai Pitches). Harbhajan has a good IPL 2019 season has taken 16 wickets from 11 matches.


Hazlewood and Curran are a great addition to the CSK side. If Hazlewood to be in playing 11, it could cost Tahir's place. It all depends on Thala's decision.


If Sam finds a spot in playing 11, it would be great. He is the type of bowler who swings the ball into the batsman and can bat higher up the order. But Bravo is most experienced as finds a spot above him.


All are waiting for 29th March for the CSK first encounter against MI because it is the Dhoni comeback match after ICC WC 2019. This IPL is so important for Thala and a good IPL season can bring back Thala into the World Cup squad.


Hoping CSK lifts the Trophy🏆🏆.

Edit: Raina and Harbhajan opt out of IPL 2020.

Raina, the highest runscorer after Virat in this league. His addition to the side provided some of the greatest wins for CSK. Absence of him is very difficult and also difficult to find a player who fills that slot. If a player comes in to fill that slot, it would be Faf Dup or A Rayudu. They can add their experience to their side and have the skill to play in defensive or aggressive modes.
