- Mitchell Santer

The promising young all-rounder from New Zealand Mitchell Santer was bought Chennai Super Kings in the auction for RS 50 Lakhs. He has shown lots of promise for New Zealand national squad with good all-round performances with bat and ball.
Mitchell Santer could not play the test series against England played in March and would miss 9 months of cricket due to a knee injury. This is a big blow for Chennai Super Kings. South African young fast bowler Junior Dala has been named his replacement. Dala is decent fast bowler but may not contribute much with the bat.
