Ravindra, another New Zealander like Conway, bats at the top of the order and could bowl left-arm spin as well. He was one of the best buys, coming at just Rs 55 lakh for the Chennai-based side. Ravindra scored more than 500 runs in Indian conditions during the ODI World Cup 2023. He was being seen as an option in case Moeen Ali failed to deliver with bat and ball. With Conway out, CSK wouldnβt need to change much in their playing 11 as Ravindra will slide into it naturally as an opener and give the team the right balance with a left-right opening combination alongside Ruturaj Gaikwad.
