IPL 2024: Who will be the replacement of Ben Stokes for CSK? Aakash Chopra replied

 

Preparations for IPL 2024 have already started. Every day more and more big updates are coming out regarding this. A mini auction is also to be held for IPL 2024 this month. Before this auction, all the teams had released the list of their released and retained players. A big name among the players released was Ben Stokes, who has been released by Chennai Super Kings (CSK). After his release, questions are being raised as to who will be his replacement for Chennai Super Kings. Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has answered this question of the fans.

Speaking to Sports 18, Aakash Chopra advised Chennai Super Kings and said, 'This franchise should target Rachin Ravindra or Darryl Mitchell in the auction. Both these players can be replacements for Stokes. Chennai needs an all-rounder who could be Rachin Ravindra or Darryl Mitchell. However, this team does not need a spinner because they have Ravindra Jadeja, Prashant Solanki, Moeen Ali and Mitchell Santner. The team can do its work with these spinners.

Aakash Chopra also said that 'after the departure of Ambati Rayudu, Chennai Super Kings needs an Indian batsman. In such a situation, this franchise should go to Manish Pandey or Karun Nair in the auction.

Let us tell you that World Cup 2023 was great for Rachin Ravindra and Darryl Mitchell. Both of them had performed amazingly in this World Cup. Looking at their batting, it is believed that all the franchises can place big bids on these two players in the upcoming IPL auction. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see which team these two become a part of.
