In what can well be MS Dhoni's last season as a player with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), the franchise is expected to go all the way once again and level with arch-rivals Mumbai Indians as far as title wins are concerned. With the 2023 season just under a month away, CSK are shaping up to be one of the most dangerous teams.
With all-rounders like Ben Stokes, Ravindra Jadeja, Moeen Ali, Shivam Dube, and Mitchell Santner in their line-up, this team can give any and every team a run for their money. One thing, however, that we might see this time around is MS Dhoni batting up the order. Ben Stokes, Jadeja, Dube, Santner and Chahar will be the batters the franchise will be betting on the finish things off, with Dhoni expected to play a slightly different role at number 5. The team has been dealt a huge blow with Mukesh Choudhary unlikely to play this season. Here is how the team is shaping up.
