IPL 2023: Complete list of injured players and their replacements
These players are important for their respective franchises and their unavailability might dent their teams' chances to win the title this year.
10. Mukesh Choudhary
Mukesh Choudhary was a vital cog in Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the last edition of the tournament. In the 2022 IPL auction, he was picked for his base price of INR 20 lakh. The 26-year-old served his team brilliantly as he became the joint-leading wicket-taker for Super Kings, along with Dwayne Bravo.
In the absence of Deepak Chahar, the medium-pacer strived to fill his void. Trapping 16 batters in 13 matches at an economy of 9.31, he emerged as one of the best finds of CSK. This time, Super Kings are looking forward to lifting the trophy for the fifth time, and to achieve that arduous task, they require Choudhury’s services.
However, there are also a few reports that suggest that the left-arm pacer might miss initial IPL games due to a back injury. In his last major assignment, the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2022-23, Chowdhury looked fine with the ball for Maharashtra. The pacer took eight wickets in seven matches at an economy of 5.75.
