CSK Fans get worried over Moeen Ali’s arrival
Chennai Super Kings have been the four-time champions and were the winners of the 2021 edition. MS Dhoni backed Moeen Ali and the all-rounder has been brilliant for the Yellow Army. However, the English all-rounder’s delay in arrival is causing a lot of trouble to the franchise. According to their CEO, Moeen Ali has been waiting to get a visa for which he had applied 20 days prior. The revelation by the franchise CEO has got the CSK fans worried.
Not just CSK, but the new entrant Gujarat Titans are also facing a similar situation as one of their coaching staff members is stuck in London. The Ahmedabad based franchise has recruited Mithun Manhas and Naim, but the latter has not been able to join the camp because of no travel clearance. One of the Gujarat Titans’ officials confirmed that the issue will be over soon.
Moeen Ali is an integral part of the CSK camp as he provides them with the all-round option and gives flexibility to the team. The all-rounder was retained by the franchise for a huge INR 8 crore and the management would definitely want him to join the camp as soon as possible.
