The Mega Auction for the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League is going to take place on 12th and 13th February in Bengaluru and it is going to be pretty exciting to say the least. All the franchises will be looking forward to get the best players onboard and it will be quite a battle for the players. Commentator and Analyst Aakash Chopra feels that CSK might say goodbye to Suresh Raina in the upcoming season of the league.

Chennai Super Kings will be entering the field with the focus of defending their title and they have retained their most valuable players already which includes MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Moeen Ali. Some big names that were a surprise release from the camp was Suresh Raina along with Faf du Plessis and Robin Uthappa. In the build-up to the auction, Aakash Chopra predicts that CSK might bid goodbye to Suresh Raina and will look to replace him with someone experienced like Ashwin or Shakib Al Hasan.

‘CSK might say goodbye to Suresh Raina’ feels Aakash Chopra

Chennai Super Kings are known for playing with experienced players, regardless of their age. They have set this template for themselves where they rely on experience rather than young blood. They have been mighty successful with this strategy and have won 4 IPL titles under the captaincy of MS Dhoni. Chopra opines that they will look beyond Suresh Raina and would try to rope in someone like Shakib or Ashwin.

“Focus on the experience players, this has been their strategy and philosophy. Dhoni likes players like that. They don’t run after youth, they don’t run after exciting talent. They like to pick ripened players. I won’t be surprised at all if they look towards Steve Smith. I see their interest in Faf du Plessis, Ravichandran Ashwin and Shakib Al Hasan,” said Aakash Chopra on his Youtube channel.
