CSK - 5 Players To Watch Out For In IPL 2019
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) has been one of the most consistent teams of the Indian Premier League over the 9 of 11 IPL seasons and probably are the most favorite to win its 12th edition if odds aren't derived. CSK has been the mixture of youth and experience that make them one of the most invincible teams of the biggest T20 tournament.
CSK with Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis, and Suresh Raina have one of the best and lethal top orders in IPL. With MS Dhoni's presence in the middle order along with Ambati Rayudu and Kedar Jadhav make CSK one of the most balanced sides who have the all-rounders like Ravindra Jadeja and Dwayne Bravo. Bowling has always been looked weakness of CSK on paper but there is something about MS Dhoni who brings out the best of an ordinary bowler.
CSK have participated in 9 out of 11 seasons and have reached in the final for 7 times of which they have won 3 times. They couldn't take part in 2016, and 2017 season due to ban. But they return in grand style to win the title for the 3rd time in 2018. However, there are five players who can win CSK their 4th title and will be the key for the men in yellow for the upcoming addition.
Here is the list of 5 players to watch out for in IPL 2019 (CSK):
1. Shane Watson (All-Rounder) - Shane Watson was probably the biggest star for CSK's fairy-tale title triumph last year. With 555 runs in 15 innings, he was CSK's second highest run scorer after Ambati Rayudu. With his vast experience of playing in the IPL, he will be one to watch out for in the 12th season of Indian Premier League.

2. Suresh Raina (Batsman) - Suresh Raina with average 400 runs in every season is probably the most consistent batsman ever in Indian Premier League history. He has been always been the backbone of Chennai Super Kings and has played an important role in all three CSK's title triumph. Though the chances are very thin this tournament could be the turning point for his international career as he is currently out of the Indian team.

3. MS Dhoni (Wk-Batsman) - With world cup just around the corner, MS Dhoni's form will be the key for India's hope of winning the cup. Dhoni has been playing well but his ability to score quickly in the last overs somehow has gone. He hasn't been able to finish the game. However, since Australia tour last year, he is slowly getting back into that rhythm and hence, this tournament is going to be vital for his own confidence.

4. Dwayne Bravo (ALL-Rounder) - Dwayne Bravo has been one of the most consistent players for CSK. He can be lethal with the bat and equally effective with the ball, especially in death overs. In a match last year against Mumbai Indians, he smashed 25-ball fifty and gave his side a win which at one stage was looking almost impossible. He has been MS Dhoni's one of the most trustworthy foreign players and will have shown that trust again if CSK eying 4th title win.

5. Lungi Ngidi (Bowler) - Lungi Ngidi made his debut in IPL last year and was mighty impressive for the men in yellow. His ability to hit the deck hard and swing the ball in both ways makes him players to watch out for in IPL 2019.
