Team CSK Full List Of Players IPL 2024: Check Chennai Super Kings Full Schedule, Players List, Captain & Vice-Captain, Possible Playing XI, Venue, Injury Updates, All you Need To Know

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) take on Royal Chllengers Bangalore (RCB) in the opening game of IPL 2024 on March 22 at the MA Chidambaram stadium. This could be the last IPL for their captain MS Dhoni, who will turn 43 in July this year. Dhoni won CSK record-equalling fifth trophy in 2023 when they beat Gujarat Titans (GT). It was Ravindra Jadeja who hit the winning runs for CSK in that final and as a gift, he did not only receive the trophy but also a warm, tight hug from his captain.

CSK have received a huge blow ahead of the competition as their opener Devon Conway has injured his thumb. He has undergone a small surgery and is likely to miss some games in the season. It would be interesting to see who replaces him at the top of the batting order. One of the contenders is Rachin Ravindra, who is also a New Zealand cricketer, and had a terrific time in World Cup which was played in India in 2023.

It would be interesting to see how some of the CSK batters perform. While Ruturaj Gaiwad, both Ravindras (Rachin and Jadeja), and other current international stars are playing well and are in form, one cannot say the same for the likes of Ajinkya Rahane and MS Dhoni. Rahane was in poor form throughout the Ranji Trophy. Dhoni does not play cricket throughout the year and began batting only a month back. CSK do have a strong squad at their disposal but what is required is firing collectively. 

CSK CEO Kasi Viswanath said that the team, like always, targets winning league games and qualify for the playoffs. From there, it is anyone's game.
