4. Shardul Thakur
The Chennai franchise has been quite big on player loyalty and fans have seen the management trying to get back ex-CSK players to their side. Shardul Thakur had been a core member of the franchise until he was bought by Delhi Capitals in this year’s Mega Auction.
Shardul has been a middle-overs enforcer for the Men in Yellow and has provided handy contributions with the bat. The Chennai franchise could likely look to rope in the bowling all-rounder at the expense of Jadeja. The 30-year-old had a mediocre campaign in the 2022 season where he featured in 14 games and took 15 wickets at a high economy of 9.79. With the bat, he scored 120 runs at an economy of 137.93.
The Palghar-born cricketer could not perform as per his standards. They could look to let go of the pacer and rope in Jadeja who could play as a floater and can finish games. This would lessen the burden on a top-heavy DC side. Moreover, the Capitals already have the services of Khaleel Ahmed, Chetan Sakariya, and Kamlesh Nagarkoti in the bowling department so it will be a win-win for both teams.
