CSK, the second most successful franchise in the IPL history, have suffered their worst run in the current season of the game. The management’s decisions in the IPL mega auction 2022, as well as the failure of senior players, have laid the road for poor results.
Let’s have a look at the three players that CSK should have bought even if they had to spend more in the mega auction.

1. Faf du Plessis
The Yellow Army made a bid for Du Plessis in the IPL mega auction in 2022, when Royal Challengers Bangalore opened their account and signed the South African star for INR 7 crore. Former head coach Ravi Shastri believes Chennai Super Kings should not have let him leave the team because he might have succeeded MS Dhoni as CSK captain ahead of the 2022 IPL season.
Du Plessis debuted in the IPL in 2012 and has since appeared in over 100 games. He enjoyed performing under MS Dhoni’s captaincy and spent several seasons with CSK. CSK made several offers for his services in an attempt to keep him in the team, but they withdrew when his price exceeded INR 3.2 crore.

2. Josh Hazlewood
The Australian fast bowler is known for his consistency, bouncers, and pace. Hazlewood is regarded as one of the best pacers in the game’s history. RCB bought the 31-year-old at the IPL mega auction 2022 for INR 7.75 crore.
The youngster drew the attention of IPL scouts when he was selected by the Mumbai Indians ahead of the 2014 edition of the IPL. CSK later bought Hazlewood ahead of the IPL 2020 Player Auction. In IPL 2021, he had 11 wickets in nine games for CSK. He certainly has the big-game experience and patience required to make an impact in the majors.
3. Shardul Thakur
CSK also released star all-rounder Shardul Thakur ahead of the mega auction for the IPL 2022 season. While many teams were interested in signing the talented player, DC was able to secure him for a hefty 10.75 crores.
Shardul made his IPL debut for Kings XI Punjab in 2015, appearing in just one match. In the 2018 auction, Chennai Super Kings bought Thakur for Rs 2.5 crore. He played for Chennai for four seasons, taking 55 wickets in 48 matches.
