CSK Management to Buy Tamil Nadu Cricketer for Next Year’s IPL Team
The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) management has made the decision to buy a Tamil Nadu cricketer for next year’s IPL team. With captain and keeper Dhoni almost certain to retire after the 2024 IPL season, the team is in need of a suitable replacement.
The timing of this decision is significant, as the IPL auction is set to be held on the 19th of this month. Earlier in CSK’s history, players such as Murali Vijay, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Jagatheesan represented Tamil Nadu, but in recent years, the team has not included any Tamil Nadu players.
It is now reported that 21-year-old Tamil Nadu player G. Ajitesh Kuruswamy is being considered as an alternative wicket-keeper for Dhoni and may be bought in the auction. Kuruswamy’s impressive performance as a finisher for Nellai in the last TNPL season has drawn attention, and his price has been recorded as 20 lakhs.
The decision to buy Kuruswamy is based on his skills as a great batsman, finisher, and wicket-keeper. This move comes after CSK released several players, including Dwayne Pretorius, Sisanda Mahala, Ben Stokes, and others in preparation for the upcoming season.
With Rs 31.40 crore at their disposal, the CSK team management is making strategic decisions to strengthen the team for the IPL 17 season. The acquisition of a talented Tamil Nadu player may prove to be a valuable addition to the team’s lineup. Stay tuned for updates on CSK’s developments in the IPL auction.
