With Faf du Plessis joining rivals Royal Challengers Bangalore, Ruturaj Gaikwad will play the lead role in CSK’s opening alongside new recruit Devon Conway.

Deepak Chahar NOT AVAILABLE – However, things are not looking good with Deepak Chahar. CSK’s most expensive auction pick at Rs 14 Crore, Chahar is recovering from a hamstring injury and hasn’t got the clearance from the NCA.
However, CSK are not yet seeking a replacement for Chahar. Once they have clarity on Chahar’s availability, only then CSK will seek a replacement.
“We don’t know about Deepak Chahar. He is at the NCA and recovering from the injury. Once the National Cricket Academy gives him the all-clear, only then he will be able to join the squad. But we don’t know when that will happen. We are yet to get any update from the NCA,” Kasi Viswanathan told InsideSport.
CSK Full Squad IPL 2022: Retained: Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni, Moeen Ali, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Auction picks: Dwayne Bravo, Ambati Rayudu, Robin Uthappa, Deepak Chahar, KM Asif, Tushar Deshpande, KM Asif, Shivam Dube, Maheesh Theekshana, Rajvardhan Hangargekar, Samarjeet Singh, Devon Conway, Dwaine Pretorius, Mitchell Santner, Subhranshu Senapati, Adam Milne, Mukesh Choudhary, Prashant Solanki, C Hari Nishaanth, N Jagadeesan, Chris Jordan, K Bhagath Varma.
