5 Players Chennai Super Kings Can Target At The IPL 2022 Auction
Defending champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) had the tough task of releasing play-ers after having clinched the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 trophy. They decided to retain all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja (Rs 16 crore), captain MS Dhoni (Rs 12 crore), England all-rounder Moeen Ali (Rs 8 crore) and opening batter Ruturaj Gaikwad (Rs 6 crore). Among the big names they released were Faf du Plessis, Ambati Rayudu, Suresh Raina, Dwayne Bravo, Shardul Thakur and Josh Hazlewood. Heading into the IPL 2022 mega auction, they have a purse of Rs 48 crore remaining since they spent Rs 42 crore in retaining four players. Keeping in mind the same, we look at five players CSK could target at the auction in January.

ONE BIG PURCHASE: SHIKHAR DHAWAN (10-12 CRORE)

Faf du Plessis and Ruturaj Gaikwad formed an exceptional opening combination for CSK during IPL 2021. Both scored over 600-plus runs, and their excellent performance was one of the main reasons behind CSK’s title triumph. However, Chennai could only retain one of the two openers and, keeping the future in mind, they went for Gaikwad.
