IPL 2020: 3 overseas players Chennai Super Kings could target at the auction

#2 Morne Morkel

In the past, Chennai Super Kings have shown a willingness to select experienced players. And Morne Morkel could be the fast bowler they target this time in that regard.

Morkel, who retired from international cricket last year, is an active T20 player. The 35-year-old pacer could be an apt replacement for Scott Kuggeleijn, who played just two matches last season.

Morkel brings in plenty of experience in the fast bowling department and is well-versed with bowling on Indian pitches. He has tasted success in the IPL in the past, bagging the Purple Cap in the year 2012.

The lanky pacer has played 70 IPL games till date and picked up 77 wickets.

Though Morkel is not getting any younger, it has been seen in the recent past that age has little to do with on-field performance. As long as Morkel picks up wickets and controls the flow of runs, he can be handy even today in IPL cricket.
