Big 3 Players Chennai Super Kings (CSK) might release ahead of IPL 2022.



IPL 2022 Mega Auction: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) had underwhelming performances in the IPL 2020 and were the first team to get knocked out of the tournament. Netizens and cricketing pundits blamed the CSK management for not releasing the ageing players from the squad, however, MS Dhoni had other intentions.



MS Dhoni backed the same set of players in the next season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) with some tweaks here and there and went on to win his fourth title for CSK, giving a befitting reply to the critics.?



However, with mega auction 2022 lined up ahead, the franchise will now look to make a formidable team that can easily play for at least three years. The purse constraints will be there and each franchise will have to leave out players forcefully.



Chennai Super Kings (CSK) has several names in its squad that are on the extremely wrong side of their 30s and will be released by the franchise. This very article will target the big 3 players Chennai Super Kings (CSK) might release ahead of the IPL 2022 Mega Auction.



<h2>Big 3 Players Chennai Super Kings (CSK) might release ahead of IPL 2022:</h2>



<h3>Suresh Raina:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/05/Suresh-Raina.jpg" alt="Suresh Raina (Chennai Super Kings) CSK" class="wp-image-64164" /><figcaption>Suresh Raina</figcaption></figure>



Famously known as ?Chinna Thala?, Suresh Raina has been the lifeline of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) along with MS Dhoni. Both the players were the most sought after players during IPL 2018-19 and before, however, their stocks have declined year after year since then.



After getting ignored by the Indian selectors for national duties, Raina?s performance has seen a huge dip. He has been under scrutiny and has not been able to replicate his old form. Though he is the leading run-scorer for CSK in the IPL, Raina hasn?t been anywhere close to his best in the last few years.



In the recent IPL 2021, he just managed to score 160 runs from 12 innings and was benched in the later stages of the tournament.?

<h3>Dwayne Bravo:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/03/dwayne_bravo_vs_dc_ipl2020_ipl-1.jpg" alt="Dwayne Bravo" class="wp-image-39812" /><figcaption>Dwayne Bravo | Image: IPL</figcaption></figure>



When it comes to forming a strong core for Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Dwayne Bravo?s name always comes there. The Caribbean all-rounder has been associated with the Chennai based franchise for a long and has time and again proved his worth in gold.



Bravo has been brilliant with his bowling skills, especially in the slog overs. He uses his wide experience and does all the tricks with the ball in death overs. However, his batting abilities have consistently disappointed.



CSK is highly unlikely to retain Dwayne Bravo in the coming auction. Furthermore, his retirement from international cricket will force the officials to think several times before placing a bid for him in the auctions.



<h3>Ambati Rayudu:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/11/Ambati-Rayudu-1.jpg" alt="Ambati Rayudu | Image: IPL" class="wp-image-80416" /><figcaption>Ambati Rayudu | Image: IPL</figcaption></figure>



Ambati Rayudu has played for Mumbai Indians (MI) for almost a decade before he joined MS Dhoni spearheaded franchise Chennai Super Kings (CSK). He joined the yellow army back in 2018 and started his new role with a bang.



In just his opening season with CSK, Rayudu slammed a massive 602 runs and formed himself as one of the most important players for the franchise. However, his stocks in the shortest format have declined since then.



In the last IPL, the Andra batsman managed to score mere 257 runs from 16 matches at an average of 28.55. Moreover, Rayudu is already 36 years old and the age factor will surely come into play as the franchise tends to go more behind young guns who can easily serve the franchise for at least three coming years.



The experts believe that Rayudu is highly unlikely to get a place in the team at first place, though, he can be purchased if CSK has some funds left.

Ambati Rayudu keen to play cricket for three more years for India: Veteran Indian batsman Ambati Rayudu has announced that he is keen on playing cricket for India in the coming years. While in conversation with the Indian Express, Rayudu revealed that he is working on his fitness to play more cricket.



It is noteworthy that Ambati Rayudu last played for India back in 2019. Though he has been a regular feature of IPL, his India appearance was diminished post-2019. In fact, the Indian selectors overlooked Rayudu for the 2019 World Cup selection, which was surely a disappointing move for the cricketer, following which he announced his retirement from all forms of cricket in July 2019.



However, Rayudu in two months time retrieved his decision of retirement and made himself available for the selection. The cricketer is consistently playing IPL since then.



?I would love to keep playing till I am in good form and fit. I will be ready for the next cycle, which is three years and I am working hard on my fitness,? said Ambati Rayudu, as quoted by The New Indian Express.?

He further mentioned that he recently played the Vijay Hazare Trophy and felt nice and was in a good shape to continue professional cricket.



?I recently played the Vijay Hazare Trophy which is five one-day games in six days which I got through well. I am in good shape and I hope to continue to play at least for the next three years,? he added.&nbsp;



Despite being a permanent member of Team India?s ODI and T20I squad, a few years back, Rayudu failed to fetch his test cap to which he is disappointed.



?It is a great honor to represent India and I am happy that I represented India in the white ball format-ODI and T20s. I feel unfortunate about missing out on the Test cap. But I don?t regret it as I have given my best. I am happy for the opportunities I got to represent the team and that in itself is a great honor.? he said.?

Ambati Rayudu keen to play cricket for three more years for India

RCB to target Jason Holder, Ambati Rayudu in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will be in limelight during the IPL 2022 Mega Auction, as the franchise has a bigger role to fulfil, which they haven't encountered in the recent past. With Virat Kohli, no more willing to lead RCB, the franchise will look to rope in a captaincy candidate in the team from the auction table.



If the reports are to be believed, former West Indies skipper Jason Holder is likely to be rewarded handsomely during the IPL 2022 Mega Auction. In fact, Holder could probably turn out to be the most expensive player in the IPL 2022.



Sources who have their ear close to the RCB have claimed that the franchise will actively bid for Jason Holder and will stretch its bid up till INR 12 Crores due to his exceptional skill set.



Bangalore has retained Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell and Mohammad Siraj as their top three players.&nbsp;



The sources further told that RCB will also keep Ambati Rayudu and Riyan Parag on its radar. Rayudu was brilliant in the IPL 2021. The cricketer played a crucial role in Chennai Super Kings (CSK) success in the IPL 2021 with his consistent performances.



Riyan Parag, on the other hand, is young and can slam massive hits. Despite not performing consistently for Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the IPL 2021, RCB feels that the youngster has the potential to accelerate innings at the backend and can be groomed for future.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/Ambati-Rayudu-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83528" /><figcaption>SPORTZPICS for BCCI</figcaption></figure>

?For Holder, they have reserved Rs 12 crore and another Rs 8 crore for Rayudu and Rs 7 crore for Parag. If they spend Rs 27 crore approximately on these players, they would have another Rs 28 crore left,? a source informed PTI on conditions of anonymity.



?The core with Kohli, Maxwell, Siraj, Holder, Rayudu and Parag will be set. Let?s hope they can get two out of preferred three,? the source said.



It must be noted that Ben Stokes, Hardik Pandya and Marcus Stoinis were in RCB?s plans, however, all of them are unavailable for the IPL 2022 Mega Auction. While Stokes has pulled out of the tournament, Pandya and Stoinis have already joined their new IPL teams.



?Ben Stokes isn?t available, Hardik Pandya and Marcus Stoinis are taken. Mitchell Marsh you never know whether he can survive a full IPL with his injury prone career, Holder has been phenomenal if one looks at his record. RCB will like to go the distance as some others will also pitch in,?



It will be interesting to watch RCB?s auction strategy. The franchise has to bring in a potential captaincy candidate besides making a formidable squad that can be sustained for at least three years of the IPL.



Former Delhi Capitals (DC) skipper Shreyas Iyer is being looked as a strong captaincy candidate for RCB, however, it remains the question, whether they will be able to get him at the mega auction or not?

RCB to target Jason Holder, Ambati Rayudu in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction

rcb-to-target-jason-holder-ambati-rayudu-in-the-ipl-2022-mega-auction

The Chennai Super Kings who won the title last year are undoubtedly one of the most successful franchises in the history of IPL. Be it good batsmen at all positions, bowlers and fielders, they've had it all most of whom have displayed tremendous abilities on the cricket pitch since times immemorial.&nbsp;



Even in this year's IPL auction, the CSK side did a pretty good job in drafting in a fair amount of good players which in turn have made their squad a quite decent one that has several options to fill in a particular spot in the playing XI. Despite losing some of its key players who played an important role in their last triumph, the super kings look all set to lift up their rhythm right from the spot where they left it back in the IPL 2021.&nbsp;



Like most other franchises even CSK shall be looking forward to a good opening pair that provides them with blistering starts in each game so as to strengthen their grip over another IPL trophy. Their openers have been a major key to their success over the last few seasons. Hence the first step for the franchise in the way to rebuild their team after the mega auction shall be to find out a good opening combination just like they did in the majority of the seasons in the past.



&nbsp;Given below are three of the most possible opening pairs that CSK could be using in this IPL season:-



<h2>1. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/pic43-compressed.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86388" width="998" height="504" /><figcaption>Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway</figcaption></figure>



The first possible combination that CSK might try out in this IPL season is of Ruturaj Gaikwad along with the newly added wicketkeeper-batsman, Devon Conway.&nbsp;



The 30-year-old Kiwi who had been added to the squad by Chennai at his base price of 2 crore INR is a classy top-order batsman who has shown pretty good abilities in the white-ball formats in the past for his national side.&nbsp;



2021 was a dream year for Devon Conway and it changed his career for the good. He started impressing first with the Test format and slowly made his way into the other formats as well. He preformed well in the first half of the 2021 T20 World Cup but sadly missed the latter part of it owing to an injury. He can proof the a great asset for Chennai Super Kings.&nbsp;



As we mentioned, he made his T20I debut in 2020 and shall be a good option to go with for Chennai. Meanwhile, Ruturaj who had been retained ahead of the mega auction shall perhaps be the automatic first-choice opener for his side along with Conway.



Ruturaj Gaikwad (IPL stats):-



Matches :-22, Runs - 839 , Average - 46.6 , Strike Rate - 132.1



Devon Conway (All T20 stats):-&nbsp;



Matches - 111, Runs - 3668 , Average - 44.7, Strike Rate - 128.6



<h2>2. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Moeen Ali</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/pic41-compressed.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86389" width="1000" height="505" /><figcaption>Ruturaj Gaikwad and Moeen Ali</figcaption></figure>



Another special option for the yellow army shall be to assemble Moeen Ali with the task of opening the innings along with Ruturaj Gaikwad. Both these players had been retained by the side after their fine performances in the previous edition of the league.&nbsp;



Moreover, Moeen Ali has the first-hand experience of opening the batting on multiple occasions both for CSK and his national team in T20 internationals. His ability to bat with a high strike rate at any position in the batting order might provide CSK with swift and free-flowing starts in almost each of their games against any opposition bowling lineup.&nbsp;



In 2021. Moeen Ali was one of Chennai?s best middle order batters but as Faf du Plessis is not in their squad anymore, this might be the best chance for Moeen Ali to rise up the ranks and open alongside Ruturaj Gaikwad.&nbsp;



An already experienced and pretty efficient duo of Moen and Ruturaj might well be the combination CSK management is looking for in all circumstances.



Moeen Ali (IPL stats) :-



Matches - 34, Runs - 666 , Average - 23.0, Strike Rate - 146.4



<h2>3. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ambati Rayudu</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/pic42-compressed.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86390" width="999" height="505" /><figcaption>Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ambati Rayudu</figcaption></figure>



There might be a slight possibility of CSK thinking out of the box and promoting their hard-hitting middle-order batsman, Ambati Rayudu up in the batting order to open the batting with Ruturaj Gaikwad.



&nbsp;The 36-year-old Rayudu who was left out of the 4 retained players ahead of the IPL auction 2022 was picked up again by his former team during the auctions for a price of 7.75 crores INR. The fact that Ambati has played several crucial innings for the team in the past might provide the team management with the confidence to provide him with a new role in the batting lineup and see if he can live up to everybody's expectations.&nbsp;



Thus the combination of Ruturaj and Rayudu also seems to fulfil the needs of the Chennai Super Kings in terms of providing them with a solid opening pair.



Ambati Rayudu (IPL stats) :-



Matches - 175 , Runs - 3916, Average - 29.4, Strike Rate - 127.5



Our Prediction: In spite of all of the above-mentioned batting pairs being highly probable and available to the Chennai Super Kings during the entire season, in our opinion, the most suitable opening pair of them all shall be one consisting of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Moeen Ali.?



The fact that a fantastic looking Faf Du Plessis was included by Royal Challengers Bangalore in their team during this auction means that Chennai shall no longer have his consistent services available at their disposal like before. Ruturaj Gaikwad who won the orange cap in last year's IPL has without a doubt cemented his position in one of the two opening slots available in the playing XI.&nbsp;



The fact that Moeen Ali has been of great use too for the Super Kings at the top of the order makes him a very suitable option to open the innings with Ruturaj Gaikwad. With all the experience and good form, the above-mentioned duo is pretty sure to make the impossible happen for CSK this year too as they lift their 5 IPL trophy just in case they provide this wonderful duo with an opportunity to bat together at the peak of the batting order.

The most successful franchise in IPL history is the Mumbai Indians. It is a team that has seen several ups and downs. The first two seasons for the Mumbai Indians were literally the worst. From the 3rd season onwards, however, the team got its campaigns back on track. Mumbai Indians have had several iconic moments in these years. We have seen Mumbai lift the CLT20 twice and the IPL Title 5 times. Here is a look at the best 5 moments in IPL history:?



<h2>1)Mumbai Indians win First IPL Title in 2013:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/cricket-gx3-min-1024x620.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86479" width="933" height="564" /><figcaption>IMG SRC: CricTracker</figcaption></figure>



The first-ever title of the Mumbai Indians came in 2013. The match was a roller-coaster of a game. The batting was looking weak.<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/kkrs-dinesh-karthik-fined-for-breaching-ipl-code-of-conduct-against-dc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Dinesh Karthik</a> and Kieron Pollard came to the rescue of the team and took them to a respectable total. Mitchell Johnson, Lasith Malinga, and <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/dhawal-kulkarni/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dhawal Kulkarni</a> pulled off the magic with the ball. Over the season Karthik was a star batter. Pollard like every crucial game, came to the rescue of the Mumbai Indians. ?



<h2>2)Mumbai Indians win First CLT20 in 2011:&nbsp;</h2>



Mumbai Indians was a successful franchise till 2011 but they never won a title. CLT20 was the first title that came into the cabinet of the Mumbai Indians. Mumbai won the league.<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/sri-lanka-pacer-lasith-malinga-likely-to-return-in-t20-world-cup-2021/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Lasith Malinga</a> was adjudged as ?Man of the Series?. Abu Nechim and Ambati Rayudu were two names that came out as heroes from that tournament. Mumbai defeated RCB in the final to get their hands on the trophy.?



<h2>3)Dwayne Smith Scores 14 Runs of 3 Balls to Win the Game:&nbsp;</h2>



Dwayne Smith was a phenomenon. He was associated with the team in 2013. This year he started doing the job of a finisher. By the end of the tournament, Dwayne was made the opener alongside Sachin Tendulkar. This game was against arch-rivals Chennai Super Kings. The game boiled down to 14 runs of 3 balls. <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/tata-ipl-2022-top-10-opening-batsman-in-ipl-mega-auction/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dwayne Smith </a>smoked the first ball for 6 and the next two deliveries for boundaries. All these shots came down the ground. The adrenaline rush was real!?



<h2>4)Mumbai Indians win 5th IPL Title in 2020:&nbsp;</h2>



Mumbai was on a ride in 2020. The team was literally an ?All-Star? team. They had a star-studded lineup. Rohit, Surya, Kishan, Krunal, Hardik, Bumrah, Chahar, Boult, and many more. The team dominated this season. The major fact that makes this victory sweet is that none of the other teams even came close to this dominant side. ?



<h2>Honorable Mentions:?</h2>

IMG SRC: NDTV</figcaption></figure>



Never have you seen a team bat out of their skins to ensure qualification. This is the most iconic moment in the history of the Mumbai team. One still cannot forget, Aditya Tare coming with chewing gum in his mouth and smashing James Faulkner over fine-leg for a six! Before that was a storm! A storm featuring Corey Anderson and Ambati Rayudu. Anderson remained not out with 95 runs to his name. On the other hand, Rayudu smoked 30 runs in 10 balls only! He was teary-eyed leaving the field after getting run-out. Rahul Dravid threw his cap down in anger after the result wasn?t in his team?s favor. Talk about iconic moments!?

Mumbai Indians: Best 5 Iconic Moments in IPL History.&nbsp;

The TATA IPL is a budding ground for domestic Indian players. With every team requiring 7 Indian players, irrespective of any format, Indian domestic players are bound to get a big chance. With the kind of talent that India has, something like the IPL is a blessing in disguise. Players from the nook and corner of the nation showcase their skills. All the IPL teams have now established a scouting process to get the best of talents to the grandest stage. Here is a look at the top Indian players found by the TATA IPL 2022:&nbsp;



<h2>10) Ambati Rayudu was Discovered in TATA IPL:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/cricket-hg2-min-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86639" /><figcaption>Ambati Rayudu realised his true abilities in IPL 2018 when he opened the batting for CSK. He also got a national call-up later. IMG SRC: TOI.</figcaption></figure>



It is odd to see Ambati Rayudu on this list, isn?t it? But his mention on this list is required. Ambati Rayudu was backed by the BCCI from the very beginning. He was an integral part of the U-19 and other age-group teams of India. But during the 2008 and 2009 seasons, he opted to play for the ICL. The ICL was a league produced by Zee TV networks. Ambati played there because they offered bigger payments. But once that league collapsed, the BCCI welcomed all the ICL players to the IPL with open arms. Ambati played for MI from 2010 to 2017. He got his national cap in 2013. ?



<h2>9) Shreyas Iyer:&nbsp;</h2>



Shreyas Iyer and his hustle began in the IPL in 2015. He back then, played as an opener for the Delhi Daredevils. Iyer was a local boy, playing games at the Azad Maidan in Mumbai. He was only known in the U-19 and age-group cricket circuit. Shreyas Iyer eventually won the ?Emerging Player of the Season? award. Iyer then went on to captain the Delhi Capitals for two successful seasons. He took them to the knockout stage every time. Shreyas is now an integral part of the Indian team. He is a top-choice middle-order batter. ?



<h2>8) T Natarajan:&nbsp;</h2>



T Natarajan was playing night games for 300 rupees a night before playing the TNPL and eventually getting a chance in the IPL. These local tournaments such as the TNPL have given us many good talents. Natarajan is one such Personna. He had a dream 2020 season. He debuted in all three formats in the iconic Indian tour of Australia. Natarajan was a part of the most amazing and memorable Gabba test match. If not for his injuries, Natarajan was certainly going to be a part of the Indian Team for the ICC T20 World Cup 2021.&nbsp;



<h2>7) Venkatesh Iyer was first Discovered in TATA IPL:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/cricket-hg3-min-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86638" /><figcaption>Bringing the Indori magic to IPL, Venky has shown his true potential in absence of Hardik Pandya. IMG SRC:TOI.</figcaption></figure>



From filling the form for his MBA and rejecting a job offer at Delloite, to playing for India, Venkatesh Iyer has come a very long way. This breakthrough performer was a part of the KKR team in IPL 2021. Venky played only half the season and scored 300+ runs. The national selectors were very impressed. The management fast-tracked Venky to the national team. He made his debut in T20Is against New Zealand. In the absence of Hardik Pandya, Venkatesh Iyer has made a strong case for himself. &nbsp;



<h2>6) Deepak Chahar:&nbsp;</h2>



Deepak Chahar, the guy from the Rajasthan has come to the foregrounds of the IPL. Deepak Chahar has been groomed by the master himself, Thala Dhoni. Chahar has been playing under Dhoni since 2016. First Chahar was roped-in by the Rising Pune Super Giants and he eventually ended up at the CSK pavilion. Chahar holds the world record for the best figures in a T20I. One cannot think of a better bowler in the powerplay overs. He is said to be the heir of Bhuvneshwar Kumar with the kin of swing he gets.?



<h2>5) Mohammad Siraj was First Discovered in TATA IPL:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/cricket-hg1-min-1024x585.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86640" /><figcaption>Siraj has set the stage on fire since his Gabba Heroics. IMG SRC: ZeeNews</figcaption></figure>



Miyan Magic! A phenomenon that has struck Indian cricket. This Hyderabadi is a very dynamic and impressive individual. Siraj has become a very different bowler after the 2020 Border-Gavaskar series. One doesn?t forget his dream spell against Australia at the Gabba! His performance at the Mecca of Cricket is also noteworthy. When Siraj bowls he keeps you at the edge of your seat. ?He can create magic with the red ball?, as stated by ABD! From getting trolled to the extent of ?Chal jaake Auto Chala!? to winning hearts at the Lords Test Match Siraj has lived a journey of his own.?



<h2>4) Yuzvendra Chahal:&nbsp;</h2>



Yuzvendra Chahal, the spin-wizard from Haryana is another prospect given by the IPL. Chahal was scouted by the Mumbai Indians. The MI team first bought him to the grandest stage. Under Rohit Sharma?s captaincy, Yuzi made his MI debut. Later, Yuzi became an RCB legend! Yuzi is so daring that he attacks the batter at the Chinnaswami Stadium, a stadium that is a graveyard for bowlers! He bowls with a mentality, ?At the max, the batter can hit me for 6 sixes, but if I don?t attack, I miss my chance of getting him out!?. Yuzi is now the most successful Indian bowler in T20Is. ?



<h2>3) Hardik Pandya was First Discovred in TATA IPL:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/cricket-hg4-min-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86637" /><figcaption>This was Hardik's base value in IPL Season 2015, cut to 2022, he was bought for 15 Crores! IMG SRC: TimesNowNews.</figcaption></figure>



If the IPL has generated any superstar, it is Hardik Pandya! Hardik is a sensation, on and off the field. Pandya knows how to carry himself and how influential he is. Apart from his off-field antiques, his on-field gems can never be forgotten. His 100 against Sri Lanka in Tests, his 90 in SA, his 3 sixes against Shadab Khan, Todd Astle, and the 28-run over against Ashok Dinda are always cherished. He was playing night games and Syed Mushtaq Ali games for Baroda before John Wright and Robin Singh picked him for the Mumbai Indians. ?



<h2>2) Rishabh Pant:&nbsp;</h2>



Rishabh Rajendra Pant is a name that has tried to fill in the big shoes of an even bigger name, ?Mahendra Singh Dhoni?. Not every batter has scored a hundred in England, SA, and Australia, and Rishabh has done that at the age of 24 itself! His innings of 97 against the Gujarat Lions and his 128* against the <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ipl-2022-sunrisers-hyderabad-squad-2022/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sunrisers </a>show his potential. Pant reverse swept Jofra Archer and<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/james-anderson-becomes-the-most-capped-english-test-cricketer-surpassing-alastair-cook/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Jimmy Anderson </a>for sixes, now this speaks volumes of his character. When Rishabh bats, one may either see two things, Rishabh getting out or him dominating. But his batting assures entertainment. His innings in 2019 against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede will never be forgotten. ?



<h2>1) Jasprit Bumrah was First Discovered in TATA IPL:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/03/cricket-hg5-min-1024x575.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86641" /><figcaption>This is a glimpse of his first game against RCB in IPL 2013. IMG SRC: DNA</figcaption></figure>



The best bowler of India currently is also a gift from the IPL. From playing Syed Mushtaq Ali games for the Gujarat state team to playing for the Indian national team, <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/jasprit-bumrah-biography-personal-life-net-worth-all-you-need-to-know/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jasprit Bumrah h</a>as come a long way. Bumrah has also been scouted by John Wright. The contribution of John Wright to Indian cricket is immense and this is just a small portrayal of it. In his first IPL game, Bumrah picked 3 wickets! It was of Kohli, Karun Nair, and <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/punjab-kings-pbks-new-captain-for-ipl-2022-mayank-agarwal-to-lead/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mayank Agarwal</a>. 2013 season was the first season in which Boom, played for MI. Since then, Jasprit has become the face of the franchise.?

TATA IPL 2022: Top Indian Players Found in the TATA IPL.&nbsp;

CSK batter Ambati Rayudu announces IPL retirement, later deletes the Tweet: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) experienced batter Ambati Rayudu on Saturday took it to Twitter to bid his final goodbye to the Indian Premier League (IPL) career, but the cricketer later deleted the tweet.



Rayudu deleted the tweet minutes later in which he had written that the ongoing season of the Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) would be his last season of the tournament.



"I am happy to announce that this will be my last IPL. I have had a wonderful time playing it and being a part of 2great teams for 13 years. Would love to sincerely thank Mumbai Indians and Csk for the wonderful journey," read Ambati Rayudu?s tweet.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/05/Ambati-Rayudu.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-89673" /><figcaption>Ambati Rayudu tweeted this on Saturday, however, lat</figcaption></figure>



Former Indian cricketer, Irfan Pathan replied and congratulated Ambati Rayudu for a proud cricketing career and said, "Played cricket with you since our u-19 days. Always admire your batting and the energy you give on the field. Wish you well for your journey ahead brother. You have done very well and should be proud of your achievement @RayuduAmbati.



Notably, this is not the first time when Rayudu has put up absurd tweets about his retirement. In 2019 after he was overlooked by the selectors for India?s ODI World Cup squad, Rayudu had announced his retirement, however, the cricketer reversed his decision and played in the Indian Premier League later.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) acquired the services of Rayudu for INR 6.2 Crores. Chennai fought bidding wars with a couple of teams to bag his services during the player auctions in 2022.



Rayudu?s abrupt decision to draw curtains to his IPL career created a stir among the netizens who asked for some sort of clarification. CSK CEO Kasi Vishwanathan later confirmed that Ambati Rayudu is not going to retire and will be with CSK for the next season as well.



"He was a bit disappointed that he was not doing well. So, he mistakenly put out that tweet. I have explained things to him. He is not retiring. He will be with us,? said Kasi Vishwanathan, CSK CEO.

The Indian Cricket team in recent times has failed to get over the line in several crucial games. It has failed to make the opportunities count. At times it has gotten so bad, that the pundits tag our beloved national team as the ?Chokers?. But on a personal note, that is not the case. Our Indian cricket team is missing out on some crucial points that need to be discussed. The team looks to be complete but yet there are some flaws. So, here is an in-depth look at what has been going wrong for the Indian Cricket team in crucial matches?&nbsp;



<h2>1) Resting of Players due to Consecutive Tours is Costing the Indian Cricket Team:&nbsp;</h2>



Can any of you readers recall the last game where all KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, and Rohit Sharma played together? It was the ICC T20 World Cup 2021! The last time when Jadeja, Bumrah, and Bhuvi played together was also in the same tournament. So, all the big-ticket players rarely come together to play. It doesn?t change the dynamic between these players but ?Team-Bonding? takes a hit. The scheduling is so tight that at times even our full-time captain Rohit Sharma cannot play all the games in all the formats. ?



<h2>2) Absence of Big-Match Players is Costing the Indian Cricket Team:&nbsp;</h2>



We know that Virat Kohli is known for his consistency. We know Rohit will win the match for you on his day. Bumrah will take wickets or be economical in almost every game. But when it comes to the big games, the opposition will have set plans for these big-ticket players. In such games, a player under the radar needs to take responsibility. For example, while all eyes were on Sachin, Sehwag, and Dhoni, Yuvraj calmly did his job and won India the big games like the quarter-final against Australia. Yusuf Pathan is a big match player. Kieron Pollard is also one.?



India currently does have players who can be the so-called, ?Big-Match Players?. Rishabh Pant is one name that comes to mind. Yuzvendra Chahal or Deepak Hooda can also be the ones. ??



<h2> 3) Flaws in Selection:?</h2>



In recent times, the selection board has always been under scrutiny. The selection board has now become a rejection board. Earlier the process was such that a fixed pool of players was chosen. These players were given a fixed number of chances. But today, one season IPL wonders are directly drafted to the national team. No doubt, experienced players like Dinesh Karthik or Hardik Pandya, have to be drafted to the national team if they make a strong comeback. But for one-season-wonders, is the same rule true? ?



Has the IPL become the top league of Indian Cricket? Ranji Trophy performances, SMAT performances, and VJT performances, don?t they count? Ambati Rayudu who had shown immense character and potential as a number 4 batter was not drafted to the final 15 to go to the ICC ODI World Cup in 2019. ?

Indian Cricket Team: What is going Wrong in Crucial Matches? 2022.?

Ambati Rayudu announces IPL retirement: Ambati Rayudu, the star batsman for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), will play his last IPL match on Sunday night when the team CSK will lock horns against the Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium. A couple of hours prior to the season finals in Ahmedabad, the veteran batsman tweeted a confirmation of the news.



Beginning his IPL career with Mumbai Indians and making his name in Team India as well, Ambati Rayudu played 8 seasons there until he got the chance to play in the yellow jersey. Rayudu, who has been part of the CSK since 2018, won two titles with the franchise.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Ambati Rayudu's Announcement</h4>



In his retirement note, he confirmed that there is no U-Turn this time. He wrote, "2 great teams MI and CSK, 204 matches, 14 seasons, 11 playoffs, 8 finals, 5 trophies, hopefully 6th tonight. It?s been quite a journey. I have decided that tonight?s final is going to be my last game in the Ipl. I truly have enjoyed playing this great tournament. Thank u all. No u-turn ????."

Ambati Rayudu made his debut in IPL in 2010 with Mumbai Indians. When Mumbai Indians won the championship in 2013, Rayudu got his first taste of tournament victory. It was the franchise's first championship as well. The batter participated in every game of the season and went on to win two additional titles in 2015 and 2017 before joining CSK the following year.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/844331-sachin-tedulkar-and-ambati-rayudu-1.jpg" alt="Ambati Rayudu announces IPL retirement, CSK vs GT (IPL 2023 Final) to be his last IPL Match!" class="wp-image-114048" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">(Image_Twitter)</figcaption></figure>



After 2017, Rayudu established himself as a power hitter on MS Dhoni's team. In the yellow jersey, he experienced some of his highest IPL strike rates, striking at 149.75 in his first season with the CSK when the team won the league title in 2018. Rayudu scored 602 runs in 16 games for the team, making it his greatest season to date in terms of runs scored.



Ambati Rayudu and CSK both had disappointing seasons in the previous year; CSK ended ninth in the standings, while this experienced Indian batsman declared his retirement midway through the campaign. However, Rayudu changed his mind and kept up his support for the franchise. This time, he has confirmed, there is no U-Turn.
