Team Analysis

ESPNcricinfo' wrote "In the auction 2020, CSK got what they wanted. The team wisely chose Sam Curran and Josh Hazlewood for the Chennai pitch. Although some may say that Piyush Chawla was not included in the team, the franchise may have wanted more experience in the team and there would have been a better balance of Chawla as an alternative to Imran Tahir. Except for the lack of a left-arm fast bowler, the team does not have much problem."[8]

Indian Premier League

On 19 September, the Chennai started their season campaign with a 5-wickets victory over the Mumbai Indians. For Chennai MS Dhoni won the toss & elected to field first. Mumbai scored 162 runs with loss of 9 wickets.

CSK has helped me improve in every way, whether as a human being or as a cricketer. My CSK has also helped me learn how to handle difficult situations on the field and off the field. Whenever I live in Chennai or anywhere in the South, everyone calls me by the name of Thala, no one calls me in my name. Whenever someone calls me Thala, he shows his love and respect for me.
