#1 Ashton Agar
If the Chennai Super Kings were to find the perfect replacement for Santner it would be Agar. Both of them similar in many ways. They both are lanky left arm spinners who can bowl economical overs. They can also chip in with a few quick runs at the end of an inning. Agar plays for the Perth Scorchers in the BBL and was recently seen playing for Australia in the Trans-Tasman Tri series.
His T20 records are pretty good. He averages 21 with the bat and has a strike rate of 122. Although he averages 30 with the bowl, his economy rate is only 7. Agar has been in good form for the past couple of months. He has picked up 15 wickets in his last 14 T20s with an excellent economy of 5.96.
Due to his similarities with Santner, he might be the top contender to replace Santner for the upcoming season of Vivo IPL.
