Further, Sanjay Manjrekar feels picking a reliable Indian middle-order batsman will be a good move for CSK in the auction. With the regular batsmen ageing while Suresh Raina and Ambati Rayudu failing to find the form, Chennai Super Kings need MS Dhoni to perform at any cost to make things fall in place in IPL 2020.

“CSK have always had senior players in their squad, they have Faf Du Plessis and Shane Watson at the top, they have got players like Ambati Rayudu and Suresh Raina at the middle, so a backup middle-order batsman would be a good idea for them,” Manjrekar said while speaking at Star Sports show Game plan.

“Dhoni loves to take these chances with ageing players, his leadership eventually makes a difference, and if he can replicate last season’s performance, it would be great for the team,” he added.
