#CSK IPL Team 2021

[killeroos]

If we are talking about IPL ships. I remember back in the 2014-2015 while playing for KingsXI Punjab, Maxi/David Miller were a ship. There used to be like edits and shit of them. Plus they were also linked to Preity Zinta, Kings XI owner.

Virat/ABD is also a fairly popular ship.

I personally prefer sticking to my team, which is CSK. I don't ship them because there is a big age gap (10+ years). But I love our openers together. Ruturaj Gaikwad/ Faf Du Plessis/ Devon Conway.

Rutu/Faf were our openers till from 2021. Then we had Rutu/Conway (RutuWay if you will) for the 2022 & 2023 season.

I think it was during the opening matches of 2022 season when Rutu said something like "I think Faf will be jealous a little bit" seeing Rutu & Conway's opening partnership.

Our openers in TSK (Franchise in MLC) are Faf & Conway, so Devon Conway was like "I know Rutu is going to be a little bit jealous"

There was a picture of three of them during this IPL season and I kid you not I got a bit emotional.

They also have a special handshake between them🥺

I don't ship them but yeah!! the bromace is 🤌

oh i didn't know any of that about csk! i'll have to look a little more into it!!

Accidental introduction to cricket

As a child, Dhoni was always into sports. He was a district-level badminton and football player. His football coach sent him to fill the position of a wicketkeeper on the school cricket team. He played well and soon bagged a permanent place in the group. This ignited his passion for cricket. Dhoni started focussing more on cricket after his 10th grade. He was very passionate about cricket and wanted to prove himself in this sport His father was not very fond of his son’s growing interest in cricket. He was of the view that there is no future in sports. However, Dhoni was clear-sighted about what he wanted for himself. He struggled against the rigid opposition from his father for prioritizing cricket over studies. But he was confident about chasing his dreams. So, going against his father’s wishes, Dhoni fulfilled his dreams instead. After that, he became a part of the Commando Cricket Club and an Under-16 championship. After this point, he pursued cricket seriously, but life had other plans for him. 

Breakthrough

The next match was his shot. Luck played in his favor the next time as he was selected for the Pakistan series. In the second match of the series, he scored a massive 148 off 123 to finally establish himself as a known face of the team. After that, there was no looking back. There were a lot more to come. This was the start, and he went ahead to make the most of his hard work and talent. His immense talent gained recognition, and he led the Indian team to the ICC World Twenty 20 Trophy in South Africa. Team India successfully won the trophy by defeating the Pakistani team. He accomplished his talent and made a mark for him self. Dhoni is the only captain to win the ICC Trophy, ODI World Cup, and Champions Trophy. His leadership is something that is celebrated across the country. Fans regard Dhoni as one of the greatest captains the team has seen. Despite his massive popularity, people knew him as a calm, cool, and composed persona. It must be because he has seen life getting hard and that aggression does not lead to rational decisions.

In 2011, Dhoni etched his name on the list of 100 most influential people in the world through his persistent efforts and hard work.

He has a collection of many expensive cars and bikes. Some of his luxurious cars are Ferrari 599 GTO, Audi Q7, SUV Hummer H2, Land Rover Freelander 2, and Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. Apart from this, Dhoni also has a collection of expensive bikes including Confederate Hellcat X132 and Superbike Kawasaki Ninja H2. On Aug. 15, 2020, Dhoni retired from all forms of International Cricket.MS Dhoni is also the Captain of Chennai Super Kings in IPL and has already won the trophy four times.

[ad_1] He was playing Test cricket after a year’s interval, but Lungi Ngidi looked lethal against India at Newlands. He has often tormented India.Ngidi was Player of the Match against India on his Test debut, claiming six for 39 in the second innings to set up South Africa’s victory at Centurion, five years ago. That show opened the door to the Indian Premier League (IPL).He was part of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) team that won the IPL in 2018 and 2021; though he has moved to Delhi Capitals, he is still good friends with his former teammates from CSK. He is looking forward to returning to India for the new season of the IPL. Ngidi took three wickets in India’s first innings in the second Test, which was over well within two days. But it wasn’t easy, Ngidi said in an interview to Sportstar.“Coming back into the team and to bowl in a crucial Test, I felt nervous, and it was almost like a debut for me,” said the 27-year-old pacer. “I was happy that I could deliver.” The wicket at Newlands has attracted much criticism: nobody, least of all the financially troubled Western Province Cricket Association, wanted a Test to last just a day and a half.“The wicket had a lot more bounce than I expected,” Ngidi said. “And there were sideways movements as well, making life difficult for batters.” He said he enjoyed his battles with the Indian batters over the years. “I know how hard it is to play Test cricket in India and I would like to make use of the home advantage when we play them here,” he said. “India has some fantastic batters and when they arrive at the wicket and their statistics are shown on the scoreboard, we know we have to get these batters out soon; if not it would be a very long day in the field. That makes me even more competitive.” His competitive nature has also helped CSK at the IPL. “It was after my Test debut against India that I got to play at the IPL,” he recalled. “I was fortunate that I played for Chennai, which I grew up supporting. I had told my dad that I dreamt of playing for CSK, and we won the title in my very first IPL. “It has been great playing alongside the likes of M.S. Dhoni, Faf du Plessis, Suresh Raina, Dwayne Bravo, Ravindra Jadeja, Murali Vijay and Shardul Thakur.” Ngidi has high regard for Indian pacers. “Mohammed Siraj has impressed me a lot; he showed promise and then became better and better,” he said. “Umesh Yadav has been a favourite as well.” [ad_2] Source link

List of Chennai Super King (CSK) Target Players in IPL 2023

Here is the list of players that might be targeted by the four-times IPL champions CSK in the Mini-Action 2022 to make an impact. 

Chennai Super Kings is the most valuable team in IPL as the team has bagged the trophy four times in the IPL. The team undoubtedly is the most intimate team to its fans as several exceptional players had played their part in CSK's journey so far. Their success depends on many factors like the leadership of Dhoni, the presence of great talent in the team, and the franchise’s implementation to keep the team core intact. 

Chennai Super Kings, the four-times IPL champions had a disappointing 2022 IPL season as the team remained in the 9th spot standing with Six points. For the first time in the history of the IPL, none of the CSK players managed to cross 400 runs. The orange cap winner of IPL 2021 “Ruturaj Gaikwad” was the player with the most runs. He scored a total of 368 runs for the Franchise in IPL 2022. 

CSK is looking for a dynamic comeback this year, the team is strengthening itself under the influence of one of the great coaches of IPL- Stephen Fleming. However, the team is strategizing to add some new names which can boost the performance of the team this year. 

Here is the list of Players CSK can Target in IPL 2023 Auction

1) Cameron Green

The 23 years old Australian all-rounder “Cameron Green” had made his international debut for Australia in 2020. The player made his maiden first century against Queensland at Gabba and forced an extraordinary draw all by himself. That outstanding performance led to his first international call-up as his name was mentioned in Australia’s ODI and T20I against team India. The player had earned recognition through his explosive batting as he hit the joint-second fastest fifty for Australia in just 19 balls against India. 

2) Ben Stokes

England all-rounder Ben Stokes is one of the most sought-after players in the IPL, however, he decided to opt-out of IPL 2022 due to his injury. Ben Stokes started his IPL career in 2017 as the Most Valuable Player of the edition with Rising Pune Supergiants where he scored 316 runs and picked 12 wickets in the season, after that he was acquired by Rajasthan Royal in 2018 for INR 12.50 crores and in 2019 and 2020 he had a decent form as he even scored a century in this format. CSK has a keen eye for details about him and they won’t miss this chance.

3) Shakib Al Hasan

Shakib Al Has has emerged as the greatest cricketer for Bangladesh. As an all-rounder, the player has consistency in his batting with a wide range of stocks and accuracy in his bowling. An experienced left-handed batsman who has the caliber to change the face of the match is always ready to do a battle against the top team with his canny aggression and excellent temperament. 

CSK is looking for the varieties and this player is good at everything, his bat does the talking, his spin deviates sharply and his fielding is tight as always. CSK has no reason not to choose him as Shakib always rallied his team with consistency.

4) Mark Wood

In IPL 2022, the biggest reason for CSK's weak performance was their bowling. From the starting match, the sharpness was missing from the Pavillion side. Interestingly, Mark Wood has this sharpness as he set a new record for the fastest spell in white-ball cricket history. He broke the previous record held by West Indies- Fidel Edward with an average of 149.02 kmph (92.6mph) in four overs against Afghanistan in the T20 world cup 2022. His outstanding performance makes him one of the top contenders in the list of CSK 2023 target players.

There are other names also that CSK might target in the upcoming Mini-Auction as the Team is strengthening at full boost and these names might be mentioned in CSK 2023 target player list.

Chennai Super kings (CSK) Retained players

To make a comeback, CSK tends to retain those high-performance players which can give them an upper hand even in the tough games, and players who have the potential to change the game will probably get retained but those who didn’t get the luck to shine so far will possibly be released from the squad.
