Chennai Super Kings (CSK) predicted playing XI for their first game in IPL 2020
As soon as clearance is obtained from the Indian Government regarding moving IPL overseas for the current edition, the preparations are expected to get underway as quickly as possible.
5. MS Dhoni
The former Indian captain is arguably the most-looked forward to cricketer for the current edition of the IPL. On a sabbatical ever since India’s unfortunate exit from World Cup last year in the semi-final against New Zealand, fans are expecting him to come full throttle in the latest edition and reclaim his place back in the national team. As a captain, wicket-keeper and a finishing batsman, MS Dhoni is the glue that holds the whole franchise together.
In all their 10 years of playing the league, Dhoni has been their go-to man whenever they find themselves in a pinch. He has won matches for his team from nearly impossible positions and has always backed players and got the best out of them. He is the only captain who has successfully managed to defend his title in the 12-year history of the league.
In 190 matches, Dhoni has played 170 innings and scored 4432 runs at an average of 42.21 and a strike rate of 137.85. He has 23 fifties to his name with the highest score of 84. More impressively, he has remained unbeaten on 65 occasions.
