CSK Announce New Signing as Khaleel Ahmed Replacement
Chennai Super Kings have finally signed a replacement for Khaleel Ahmed. He was injured a few weeks back, as the team faced challenges in getting someone in his place. But now, they have signed Kuldip Yadav as a replacement for 30 lakh rupees.
Chennai Super Kings will be having some of the most important matches of their entire IPL in the next few days. With 3 games available for the team in six days, they will have to win at least two of them to keep themselves in contention for the playoffs. At the same time, CSK has also been suffering with some injury woes.
Khaleel Ahmed, one of their prime bowlers, suffered with an injury in the middle of the season. Since then, the team brought down replacements for players such as Ayush Mhatre and Jamie Overton, but a replacement for Khaleel Ahmed was never announced. Noting the seriousness of their matches lined up, the team has finally announced a replacement for the same.
Kuldip Yadav has now joined the team as a replacement for Khaleel Ahmed. However, it should be noted that this new signing has been made by the CSK for just 30 lakh rupees, acquiring him for his base price. He has been a part of Rajasthan Royals, playing three games for them in his career.
Our Take
The inclusion of Kuldip Yadav will be improvising things for Chennai Super Kings. They have already suffered with a number of injury issues, from MS Dhoni to Jamie Overton, and now they just want their dominance to remain as it is, and eventually reach the playoffs. Kuldip Yadav will be eager to prove his worth to the team, as he makes his comeback in the Indian Premier League after three long years.
