IPL 2019: Complete list of Chennai Super Kings squad

IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings were comparatively inactive during the player auction for IPL 2019, investing in pace-bowler Mohit Sharma for Rs 5 crore along with the signing of uncapped batsman Ruturaj Gaikwad at his base price of Rs 20 lakh. 

Sharma has previously been involved with the franchise in the earlier editions of the tournament, emerging as a vital performer with his variations in line and length. Gaikwad on the other hand, enjoys a solid reputation in domestic cricket.      

The franchise had earlier opted to retain the majority of the players from the squad like skipper MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina, Ravindra Jadeja, Dwayne Bravo and Shane Watson before the auction.

The defending champions will be looking to maintain their winning run in the upcoming edition of the IPL.
