Chennai Super Kings (CSK) got knocked out of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) after losing against RCB on Saturday. Missing some of their key players, CSK performed below-average and could only win 7 games in the ongoing edition. After a disappointing outing in the current edition, CSK will now be planning about their mega auction strategy for IPL 2025. Let us check out 3 players CSK might retain for IPL 2025.
| Player | Role |
| Ruturaj Gaikwad | Batter |
| Ravindra Jadeja | All-rounder |
| Matheesha Pathirana | Bowler |
Probable CSK retained players for IPL 2025
Ruturaj Gaikwad
CSK skipper, Ruturaj Gaikwad is surely on the list retained players by CSK in IPL 2025. In IPL 2024, Ruturaj Gaikwad had a terrific run with the bat scoring 583 runs in just 14 innings. He played at a strike rate of 141.16, averaging 53. Leading CSK, Gaikwad played several crucial knocks for the Yellow Army in the ongoing edition.
Ravindra Jadeja
CSK’s veteran all-rounder, Ravindra Jadeja is also expected to be retained by CSK for IPL 2025. Jadeja looked a bit off colour with the bat in IPL 2024. However, the left-arm spinner has one of best economy with the ball in the current edition. He also scalped eight wickets. With MS Dhoni possibly not playing in IPL 2025, Jadeja’s on-field experience might come in very handy for the Yellow Army.
Matheesha Pathirana
Express pacer Matheesha Pathirana is another player CSK might retain for the next edition. In IPL 2024, Pathirana bowled several decent spells with the ball. However, his absence during the ending phase of the IPL hurt CSK quite badly. Pathirana is surely on the list of getting retained for the next year.
