N Jagadeesan IPL teams list
Jagadeesan has just played for Chennai Super Kings in IPL history, where the 4-time IPL champions bought the Tamil Nadu batter for his base price of INR 20 lakh in the IPL 2022 mega auction. It is interesting that Jagadeesan has played a total of just 7 IPL matches across IPL 2020 and IPL 2022.
Out of those 7 matches, he did not bat in 3 of them. In the 4 IPL innings, he has batted, Jagadeesan has managed to score 73 runs at a S/R of 110.61 where 39* has been his highest score against Gujarat Titans in IPL 2022 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
It is clear that the talented batter from Tamil Nadu has not got a constant run in the IPL. Jagadeesan has been released by Chennai Super Kings ahead of IPL 2023, and he can be a lucrative pick for the franchises after his recent form this season in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.
In T20s, Jagadeesan has scored 1064 runs at 32.24 with the help of 6 half-centuries. However, his S/R is just 118.61, but his ability to keep the wickets makes him an attractive option for the other teams.
