The IPL season 11 is almost knocking the door and the fans are really excited about it. One of the greatest team, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) is coming back after 2-years ban. The 2 times IPL champion will aim to lift the trophy once again this year. The CSK side has got a good squad with MS Dhoni leading the side again. No doubt that CSK will put troubles for all the team throughout the tournament.

So here are the 5 players who can open the inning for CSK in the upcoming IPL season:

1) Narayan Jagadeesan

The right-handed batsman from Tamil Nadu has been impressive since his debut for Tamil Nadu in the 2016-17 Ranji Trophy.

He also won the man of the match award. He came to the limelight after an impressive time with bat in the first season of the Tamil Nadu Premier League 2016.

In Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2017-18, he scored 152 runs at an average of 38.00 and a strike rate of 129.91. His batting skills make him an ideal opener in the upcoming IPL season.

Considering the number of openers that CSK have at their disposal, Jagadeesan will in all probability not make it to the CSK XI, however, he could come in handy during the latter stages of the tournament if any of the CSK players face injury or burnout problems.
