IPL 2018: 5 Players who CSK can buy as a replacement for Santner to fill the voids in the team

#4 Alex Carey (Rs 30 Lakhs)

Carey is a great striker of the ball

Alex Carey is an Australian Wicket-Keeper batsman who has impressed one and all with his performance in the recently concluded Big Bash League.

He is among the finds of BBL and his performance in the league has even earned him an Australian cap.

Carey had a phenomenal BBL scoring 470 runs in 19 T20s at a brilliant average of 47. He also scored a century in a match against Hobart Hurricanes in Adelaide this year.

He has a strike rate of 137 which is an indication of his big-hitting abilities.

The Australian Keeper opened the innings for Adelaide Strikers in BBL but he has the ability to play pace and spin equally well which enables him to drop down the order as well.

He played as the No.8 batsman for Australia in his solitary ODI match and he could be used as a finisher if CSK decides to pick him.
