MS Dhoni- The team’s de facto captain who plays the key role of a wicket-keeper batsman in the team.

Suresh Raina- CSK’s leading run-scorer and their preferred batsman for the number three position. Raina has frequently ended IPL seasons among the top run-getters and he is the backbone of CSK’s sterling batting line-up.

R Ashwin- Once MS Dhoni’s trump card during powerplay overs, Ashwin made his name in national cricket through impressive performances in IPL. He started as a bowler who bowled in the powerplays and with time evolved as an ace bowling weapon. He is no more a part of CSK franchise.

Dwayne Bravo- The death bowler specialist for CSK, Bravo has become a highly reliable option during the death overs with his pace variations and nerveless attitude.
