Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are reportedly keen on bringing back veteran off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin for the 2025 IPL season. Ashwin, who began his IPL journey with CSK in 2008, will be available in the upcoming mega auction after being released by the Rajasthan Royals.

Ashwin’s potential return to CSK is seen as a strategic move, with the team looking to leverage his tactical acumen and experience. The 36-year-old is known for his ability to read the game, make crucial breakthroughs with the ball, and contribute valuable runs with the bat.

CSK, with a budget of 55 crores, are reportedly looking to acquire Ashwin for a bargain price. His understanding of the Chepauk pitch, where CSK plays many home games, could be a significant factor in their home performances.

While CSK are keen, acquiring Ashwin will depend on their auction strategy and potential bidding wars with other teams. The Rajasthan Royals may also be reluctant to let go of their experienced off-spinner.

The 2025 IPL auction will be crucial in determining Ashwin’s future and whether he will finally return to the team where he made his IPL debut.
