MS-Dhoni
Chennai Super Kings is arguably one of the most successful teams in IPL history. The team led by MS Dhoni has won the IPL on 3 occasions. However, CSK endured their worst ever outing in IPL 2020. Finishing 7th in the points table, CSK failed to qualify for the playoffs for the 1st time in IPL history. Dhoni and his men will look to put a gloomy IPL 2020 behind and focus to get back to winning ways this season. That said, here are 3 reasons why CSK could win the IPL 2021:
3. CSK has a plethora of experienced players
Having a bunch of experienced players on the side could be the difference for CSK in IPL 2021. With the likes of MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina, Dwayne Bravo, and Imran Tahir, CSK surely boasts a quite experienced lineup. Such experienced players will not only provide CSK an edge but will also help guide and mentor the youngsters in the team. MS Dhoni has long been a part of IPL to react to any sort of situation, good or bad. Such experience cannot be overlooked, as it has helped win CSK 3 IPL titles in the past.
2. CSK have an immensely strong bench
Back in the IPL 2020, CSK struggled with the opening pair. Even after several experiments, nothing worked perfectly for the Men in Yellow. Even in the bowling department, there was rarely any regular starter for the Chennai franchise. However, in IPL 2021, CSK doesn't face that problem anymore. With the addition of Cheteshwar Pujara, Robin Uthappa, Moeen Ali, and Krishnappa Gowtham, it will be really difficult to arrive at a playing XI. However, once that is done, there is a possibility that the starting XI might remain unchanged for the entire season.
1. CSK has match winning all rounders
If you want to vie for the IPL trophy, you need to have match-winning all-rounders in your team. CSK has some quality all-rounders in the form of Dwayne Bravo, Ravindra Jadeja, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, and Mitchell Santner. As a backup, CSK could also use Karn Sharma and Deepak Chahar. Dhoni knows how to get the best out of his players. Hence, the CSK skipper will be eager to change the fortune of CSK this year. If CSK manages to resurrect their old form, they will surely be able to take on any team this year.
