IPL 2023 is around the corner but a key player for Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Kyle Jamieson, is struggling with an injury.
Jamieson was acquired by Chennai Super Kings for ₹1 crore during the IPL 2023 auction. Sadly for the team, however, the talented pacer’s recurring back injury makes it doubtful that he will play in the upcoming season.
Kyle Jamieson has been sidelined with a back injury since June last year. He was trying to make a return in the ongoing two-match Test series against England, but it was not to be.
The tall seamer will have back surgery, which will keep him out of action for about four months. He likely won’t be playing for CSK in the 16th IPL season as a result.
A replacement for Jamieson would now need to be picked by the Chennai-based team for IPL 2023. There are a few top-tier stars CSK may be considering for that purpose.
