Shardul Thakur (CSK)

The Mumbaikar fast bowler, Shardul Thakur is slowly making his way into the Indian team. Being very good at bowling the knuckleball will serve him well. He has played 13 IPL matches so far for the Kings XI Punjab and Rising Pune Supergiants where he picked 12 wickets at an economy of 8.57. With the added international experience now, CSK will expect Shardul to spearhead the Chennai pace attack and deliver as needed for the team.
