David Willey was bought by Chennai Super Kings as a replacement for the injured Kedar Jadhav. Willey is one of the most versatile T20 players in the world at the moment, and has played 147 T20 games so far and scored more 2000 runs at a strike rate of 143. He has also picked up 143 wickets at an economy of 7.8.

The English all-rounder has opened the batting for Perth Scorchers and Yorkshire in the Big Bash League and Natwest T20 respectively, but bats at no. 7 for his national team. He will give a lot of options for MS Dhoni with both the bat and the ball.

He can swing the new ball and is effective with his yorkers in the death overs, while he can also hit the ball a long distance. Once again, Tahir will be the one to lose his place in the team.
