#2 Robin Uthappa
Robin Uthappa was released by the Kolkata Knight Riders ahead of the IPL 2020 auction. The stylish right-hander is a seasoned campaigner and has performed consistently over the years. However, after a poor IPL 2019, KKR decided to part ways with the former RCB man.
Uthappa is still a very capable batsman and can be a very good option for the Chennai Super Kings. His ability to bat in the top-order as well as in the middle order will be very useful for the 3-time champions.
Chennai's home ground Chepauk has a spin-friendly wicket and requires batsmen who are good against spin bowling. Uthappa is a very good player of spin and can help the team through tough conditions. Uthappa can also keep wickets for Chennai in the absence of MS Dhoni.
