Another Tamil Nadu player is in contention to open the innings for Chennai. The left-hander has played 27 games, scoring 593 runs at an average of 26.95 and a strike rate of 124.82, with a highest score of 92 not out. Just like Jagadeesan, his strike-rate might be a little problematic for the team but that can be worked upon by the youngster and the coaches around him in the team. The Ooty-born player has hit 25 sixes and 57 fours in his career while playing for his state team, Dindigul Dragons, and VB Thiruvallur Veerans in the Tamil Nadu Premier League.
