In the pace department, CSK may look at Matt Henry from New Zealand. The Kiwi fast bowler has featured in six IPL matches and brings genuine pace, consistently clocking 145+ kmph, which could add variety to CSK’s attack.

Additionally, domestic talent Auqib Nabi from Jammu & Kashmir could be a smart budget pick. He is known for his discipline, consistency across formats, and could emerge as a valuable steal deal in the auction.

CSK already boast a strong pace-bowling unit comprising Jamie Overton, Anshul Kamboj, Khaleel Ahmed, Mukesh Choudhary, Nathan Ellis, and Gurjapneet Singh, and the addition of these two pacers would further strengthen the attack and do wonders for the franchise.
