The Chennai Braves, a familiar presence in the Abu Dhabi T10 League since 2021, are poised for a fresh start as they prepare for the upcoming season. The team has been constantly competitive but has yet to win a league title, finishing seventh last season. For the 2023 season, the Braves are under new leadership, with Jason Roy taking the helm.
The Chennai Braves have made significant changes in order to reinforce their roster and improve their prospects of winning the championship. They chose to keep only two players, the Obed McCoy and Sikandar Raza.
Furthermore, they’ve made four strategic pre-draft signings, securing the explosive batting prowess of Jason Roy, along with talented additions in Charith Asalanka, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, and Hassan Ali. The Chennai Braves made significant purchases to strengthen the team at the players’ draft for the 2023 season.
