A former CSK star has suggested two exciting players who could change the team’s future after a disappointing IPL 2026 season.
Instead of choosing experienced stars, Badrinath has picked two exciting all-rounders he believes can transform CSK’s future.
Badrinath said MI won’t trade Hardik Pandya easily and suggested CSK swap Shivam Dube for him. He also thinks CSK should try for Ben Stokes and may be interested in Hardik but hasn’t revealed it yet.
Badrinath said that most teams want Hardik Pandya and that the Mumbai Indians might trade him. He thinks KKR is the ideal team since they need an all-rounder and a captain.
Sanju Samson, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Urvil Patel, Kartik Sharma, Dewald Brevis, Ben Stokes, Hardik Pandya, Jamie Overton, Anshul Kamboj, Noor Ahmad, Khaleel Ahmed and the Impact Player will be MS Dhoni.
With IPL 2027 coming up, CSK’s management has some tough decisions to make that could shape the team’s future.
If these changes happen, can Chennai become title contenders again, or do they need even bigger changes?
