Why did CSK not hand Akeal Hosein a debut despite pleas from former stars?
Akeal Hosein has been waiting for a chance to prove himself in the IPL. CSK's overseas power has, anyway, been depleted as stars like Dewald Brevis have been sidelined with injury, while Nathan Ellis has been ruled out, and lastly, Spencer Johnson is yet to join the squad.
The likes of star cricketers Ravichandran Ashwin and Ambati Rayudu have constantly been backing Akeal Hosein to be part of the CSK unit. He could be a possible solution to CSK's spin bowling woes.
