During 2018 auctions, Faf was expected to raise some bidding war as he was a prominent captaincy option which was lacked by many teams. But, CSK used the Right to Match card to buy him at a mere price of INR 1.6cr.
Although he was not part of the initial XI, he was included in the later stages rightfully for his experience and he took his team to victory after being slumped to 62-6 in 13 overs in a chase of 140 in the first qualifier.
Chennai would be happier for this bargain buy as he will be adding more strength this season if IPL is shifted to South Africa.
