Sam Curran: Sam Curran has been in splendid form with both the bat and the ball. He has picked up five scalps in the matches so far and has also added quick runs with his fierce hitting.
Andre Russell: Andre Russell was the most destructive player last season and was felicitated with Man of the Tournament. He hit the most sixes, scored over 500 runs at a strike rate above 200 and also took more than 10 wickets! KKR are still awaiting for him to explode this season.

Vice Captains: Sam Curran and Shubman Gill
Sam Curran is a valuable all-rounder and CSK needs to use his batting skills well too. Shubman Gill has done a brilliant job as an opener but needs more support from Sunil Narine.
