IPL 2024: Four CSK Players under age 30 to watch out for in Indian Premier League 17

Chennai Super Kings are the joint-most successful franchise in the history of the lucrative IPL, having bagged five accolades. Under the tutelage of MS Dhoni, CSK scaled great heights and became a formidable force to reckon with in the premier T20 competition.

In the last season, the Yellow Army braved the challenges and got the better of Gujarat Titans in the showdown to clinch the fifth title. CSK made good signings at the IPL 2024 auction and will use their resources to better effect to defend the title.

The team with a blend of youth and experience is expected to bring the best out of themselves. In this listicle, let’s learn more about the names of four CSK players under age 30 who are more likely to have a cracking season.

Ruturaj Gaikwad: The opener is expected to make a telling impact for CSK in the IPL 2024 season. The right-hander has constantly been making waves with the bat ever since donning the yellow jersey. Having played 52 games so far, the 27-year-old opening batter has mustered 1797 runs at an average of 39.1 including 1 century and 14 half-centuries.

Rachin Ravindra: The 24-year-old New Zealand international registered his name at the IPL 2024 auction for his base price of INR 50 lakh. Chennai Super Kings recruited the services of talented prospect Rachin Ravindra for INR 1.8 crore.

Rachin had a stellar World Cup 2023 campaign, scoring 578 runs in 10 games at an average of 64.22 including 3 centuries and 2 fifties.

With injured Devon Conway ruled out of the IPL 2024 until May, fellow New Zealand batter Rachin Ravindra could be given the license to open the innings alongside Ruturaj Gaikwad.
