IPL 2021: Ishan Kishan Smashes The Fastest Half-Century Of IPL 2021 In Just 16 Balls.

One of the integral cogs in Chennai Super Kings, Faf du Plessis is no more part of the successful franchise. He was outstanding last year with the bat but CSK decided to let him go ahead of the next season. With age not on his side, CSK might not want to get him back into the set-up and would look for another opener.

Ishan Kishan is someone who can complement Ruturaj Gaikwad really well. The duo can form a great opening pair for CSK for the years to come. The right-left combination would keep the team in good stead. Given that Gaikwad takes some time before switching gears, Ishan Kishan can be a great company to have. He is someone who takes the attacking route right from the onset of his innings.

Mumbai Indians, unfortunately, had to release Ishan Kishan for the next edition and Chennai Super Kings can target him at the auctions. Ishan Kishan has 1452 runs in 61 matches in IPL at an average of 28.47.
