Former Indian Cricketer and commentator Sanjay Bangar opened about the future of Chennai Super Kings (CSK), the future of Ravichandran Ashwin, after unpleasant performances at IPL 2025. Bangar stated that Super Kings could consider releasing Ravichandran Ashwin before the next season IPL to free their feet.
The Super Kings became the first team to be eliminated from the IPL 2025 after their loss of four wicket in Punjab Kings (PBKs) at home on Wednesday, April 30. It was the first time that the five times champions could not qualify for the playoffs for two consecutive seasons. Bangar predicted that CSK could make changes to its workforce.
Sanjay Bangar weighs Ravichandran Ashwin’s withholding for CSK for next season
Sanjay Bangar said CSK Management could release Ravichandran Ashwin to release some funds before the next mini-subhasta. Bangar stated that CSK could evaluate other players, such as Mathana Pathirana, and decided whether they could be kept or sought replacement.

“Whether they keep Ashwin or it will not be another big question because it is where the money is blocked. If they want to free the purse a little, knowing that they may not want to use Ashwin as much as they have used this particular season,” Bangar told Star Sports.
“So, probably, of these big tickets players, these are the two players (Ashwin and Patirana) who could think if they want to keep them or maybe find a replacement for them,” he added.
Ravichandran Ashwin bought by Chennai Super Kings for 9.75 $ crore to Mega Auction
Ravichandran Ashwin was purchased by Chennai Super Kings for a junction of € 9.75 at the IPL 2025 mega auction. However, the veteran spinner has struggled to keep up with expectations. Ashwin has only taken five doctors in seven games, with an average of 44.60 and a 9.29 economy rate.
His best performance came to the opening match against the Mumbai Indians (MI), where he collected 1/31 in four points. He also took two doctors in a game against Punjab Kings (PBKs), but granted 48 runs in his four points.
Ashwin was recently abandoned from Game XI to the tournament. Above all, the team led by Ms. Dhoni has spin bowls such as Ravindra Jadja and Noor Ahmad.

Ravichandran Ashwin has taken 185 doctors in 215 tickets in his IPL race: the fifth highest number of doctors in the history of the tournament.
Chennai Super Kings are fighting at the bottom of the IPL 2025 point point. With only two 10 -game wins, their clean rate is -1.211. Then the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will be assumed at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on May 3.
CSK can no longer reach 14 or 16 points, with only two wins in his name. The five years champions lost the last three games. Since 2020, CSK has participated in six IPL seasons, ranking for playoffs only twice and has lost four times.
