IPL Auction 2020: 5 uncapped players who might get released

#2 KM Asif

KM Asif only played two matches for CSK in 2018.

Chennai Super Kings retained their core during the comeback in 2018. However, one sector where CSK had to invest a bit was their bowling department. They invested in young guns like Deepak Chahar, KM Asif, and Lungi Ngidi. Deepak and Ngidi got ample opportunities to prove their mettle.

However, Asif didn't get many breaks to showcase his talent as played only two matches in IPL 2018 while picking up three wickets at a strike-rate of 12.00 and an economy rate of 12.50. Post that, MS Dhoni failed to include Asif in Chennai's any of the games in the previous edition of IPL.

Hence, considering the fact, the CSK management might release KM Asif ahead of the IPL auction in a gambit to acquire a quality pacer instead. CSK grappled with the same in the previous year and would not want to repeat the same mistake this year as well.
