Fantasy IPL 2018: The best uncapped player from each side

Chennai Super Kings - Deepak Chahar

The lack of Indian fast bowling options could mean Deepak Chahar starts!

In the auction, CSK went with the emotions and the experience as they tried to assemble their old squad back, and with an absence of a few players, notably Ravichandran Ashwin, they managed to assemble the core of the squad. While it probably would help with the team chemistry, what went wrong in the auction was the failure to acquire an experienced Indian fast bowler. A lot of burden, with respect to early breakthroughs with the new ball, is expected to be on England fast bowler Mark Wood and the recent Indian debutant Shardul Thakur. Dwayne Bravo could return to his bowling duties as well, and these three should help them complete at least half of the bowling innings.

They would still need another seam bowler before they look at the spinners and the part-timers to complete the bowling lineup for a match. Deepak Chahar is expected to be that man, who is coming off a strong performance in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy with 19 wickets in 9 matches including a 5-wicket haul against Karnataka. He comes at 0.75M of virtual cash and is the costliest uncapped player on the team.
