With all eyes now set on the IPL 2023 season, all teams will have an opportunity to seek players from other teams in a small auction window. CSK too will look to add some key players from Rajasthan Royals. In this article, we take a look at three players whom Chennai can add from Rajasthan.
IPL 2023 Auction: 3 Rajasthan Royals (RR) Players Chennai Super Kings (CSK) Can Target
Ravichandran Ashwin
Chennai Super Kings can go all-out for rebuying Ashwin for the last leg of his IPL career. He started with CSK in 2009 and took no wickets for the franchise before parting ways with the side. Over time, he has played for various franchises and made a healthy contribution to all the teams. Ashwin returning to CSK would be a perfect homecoming story.
Shimron Hetmyer
The West Indian left-handed batsman scored 314 runs from 15 games marking his best year in the IPL. He also hit 21 sixes in the season. Hetymyer can well be a game-changer in this transitional CSK side who are looking for a revamp ahead of the next season.
Devdutt Padikkal
Padikkal was one of the young Indian players snapped up by RR in the IPL 2022 mega auction. He scored 376 runs from 17 games for the Royals playing a key role in their road to the final. He can bat anywhere in the top 4 and can be flexible with his approach which is his great ability as a cricketer.
