In a latest development, the captain of Delhi Capitals, Rishabh Pant, is rumoured to join Chennai Super Kings ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season. The left-handed batter, who made his triumphant return to cricket during the last season of the IPL earlier this year with Delhi Capitals, didn’t have the best of times in terms of individual form and team results.
In this article, SportsTiger looks at four reasons why Rishabh Pant could join CSK ahead of IPL 2025.
Solve CSK’s top order woes from last season of IPL
In the 2024 season of the IPL, apart from Ruturaj Gaikwad, the captain of Chennai Super Kings, none of the other batters in the top order performed with any sort of consistency, which led to their early exit from the tournament. Rishabh Pant, who is evolving into a very good top order in the T20 format, can add strength and depth to the CSK batting lineup at number three or four, becoming a difference maker for the franchise in the IPL 2025.
