A left-arm pacer is high on the radar for Chennai Super Kings. Matheesha Pathirana will lead the pace attack and the franchise will need some good partners for him in the pace department. A left-arm pacer will add balance and variety to the attack. Last season, the influence of Mustafizur Rahman was good. The franchise could go for a similar outlook in the next campaign. Here, we take a look at the list of three left-arm pacers CSK could target in IPL 2025 Mega Auctions.
1) Khaleel Ahmed
Khaleel Ahmed will tick quite a few boxes for CSK. It could be hard to get him but if CSK is heavily invested in hiring him, it will be a top acquisition for the franchise.
Khaleel is a fantastic bowler in the powerplay and is a proven wicket-taker with the new ball. He is also developing his skills in the other stages. With such credentials and age on his side, CSK will look for a player like him to be a part of the side.
2) Marco Jansen
Marco Jansen is one of the left-arm pacers CSK could target in IPL 2025 Mega Auctions. Last season, due to Pat Cummins’ arrival, he hardly got to play for the franchise.
Nevertheless, quite a few teams will want to get him for the value he can provide with the new ball. He is young and his batting is also very useful at No.8. CSK likes such players and hence, they could go hard for him.
3) Fazalhaq Farooqi
Fazalhaq Farooqi can be an under-rated option for CSK to consider. He is good with the new ball and the Afghan can have an impact in the other stages of the game, as well.
He did well in the recent ICC events and is in good form. For the future, as well, he will be a good investment. Hence, he is on this list.
