Chennai Super Kings come into the 2024 edition of the Indian Premier League aiming for another perfect campaign. CSK will face RCB in the IPL 2024 opener on March 22. CSK have won the coveted IPL trophy three times in the last six seasons, besides picking up their fifth title in 2023. By winning the 2024 edition, CSK could surpass Mumbai Indians in terms of trophies won. Who better than their veteran leader, MS Dhoni, to guide them to a successful campaign? CSK have one of the best balanced squads in the IPL with each bases covered. CSK suffered a blow as star opener Devon Conway got ruled out until May, which means he will miss the season due to injury. He scored a whopping 672 runs last season. CSK will hope to find an option from their available squad to replace the Kiwi southpaw. Be it Indian players or foreign recruits, the might of CSK is amazing. Dhoni, who is set to feature in his 15th season, will be keen to showcase his mettle as a leader.
In the IPL 2024 auction, CSK released Ben Stokes as Ambati Rayudu also retired. Replacements in the form of Daryl Mitchell and Rachin Ravindra came in. Uncapped Sameer Rizvi of UP was roped in for a massive sum as well. The bowling of CSK received a boost with seasoned pacers coming in. CSK has their core intact, and each player gets about his role almost perfectly. So, one expects to see a near-perfect campaign with elevated performances.
