Sisanda Magala has been brought in as Kyle Jamieson’s injury replacement and is scheduled to sign with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) for a base price of INR 50 lakh. Prior to the Test series against England last month, the Kiwi seamer experienced a recurrence of his lower-back stress fracture. He will therefore be forced to miss several months of cricket, including the IPL.
Magala acknowledged that the IPL is the pinnacle of white-ball cricket and that all participants participate to hone their limited-overs abilities. He said:
“I’m simultaneously very anxious and excited. I’m overjoyed to have the chance, especially to play in the IPL. I think participating in the IPL is the pinnacle for anyone looking to specialize in white ball cricket. The opportunity is enormous. My anxiety is high. “.
The 32-year-old has a respectable T20 cricket record, taking 139 wickets in 128 matches at a strike rate of 23.58 with a few fifers.

However, South Africa lost to the West Indies in the first T20I on Saturday. The right-arm seamer, who claimed three wickets, added:
The West Indies took a 1-0 lead in the three-game series by chasing down the 132-run target in 10.3 overs. David Miller’s quick 22-ball 48 contributed to the hosts’ high total. The opposing captain, Rovman Powell, hit five sixes to help his team win, though.
When Magala joins MS Dhoni’s team in Chennai after the ODI series between South Africa and the Netherlands is over, it will be his first time participating in the Indian Premier League.
Magala admitted to the media that he is both anxious and thrilled to play in the IPL. At the same time, I’m both anxious and excited, Magala said. Magala’s edition to the CSK side will strengthen its bowling unit. It will be exciting to watch as Magala’s inclusion in the CSK side will strengthen its bowling unit.
