Opening Batsmen:
As Chennai Super Kings team 2018 has its fair share of formidable middle-order batsmen in the Chennai Super Kings team list, the franchise seems to have compromised a little on the quality openers. The franchise’s best bet will be to send in India Test opening batsman Murali Vijay and former Australia dasher Shane Watson to open CSK’s innings for the upcoming IPL season 11.Middle Order:
The ‘yellow brigade’ had executed their player retention plans brilliantly, something which Chennai Super Kings team 2018 has always been known for. CSK retained former India skipper and current wicketkeeper-batsman MS Dhoni, limited-overs explosive batsman Suresh Raina, and South Africa captain across all formats Faf du Plessis in the Chennai Super Kings team list. The tail-end of the Chennai Super Kings lineup will see all-rounders – Ravindra Jadeja, Harbhajan Singh, and Karn Sharma help the team at the crease in the times of adversity.Bowling Lineup:
CSK have their pace section covered with Dwayne Bravo and Shardul Thakur’s excellent right-arm medium fast bowling. On the other hand, the spin-bowling section will be taken care of by the veteran Indian off-spin specialist Harbhajan Singh. To accompany the off-spinning veteran, CSK has potent leg-spinners in Ravindra Jadeja and Karn Sharma, with Kedar Jadhav as the ideal back-up spinner.CSK Captain for IPL 2018 – MS Dhoni
After having retained MS Dhoni during the player retention process earlier in January, CSK had never intended to keep it a secret that the captain for the franchise for the upcoming IPL season 11 will be none other than the former Indian captain, MS Dhoni, who has always been a favorite leader for the ‘yellow brigade’.Dhoni has been the MVP for Chennai Super Kings in all the previous IPL campaigns, and in the IPL 2018 edition, the Jharkhand wicketkeeper-batsman will re-assume the role of team captain.
