While the players honed their respective skills, Amre not only shared tips, but also gave valuable feedback to the cricketers. ‘Mentally aim for a six, you will at least get a four.

Meanwhile, CSK has signed Australia pacer Jason Behrendorff as a replacement for Josh Hazlewood for IPL 14. The left-arm quick has featured in 11 ODIs and seven T20Is so far. This is Behrendorff’s second IPL team, having represented Mumbai Indians in 2019 where he played five matches and picked as many wickets.
Earlier in the month, Hazlewood pulled out of the IPL. He was set to depart for India with Australia’s IPL-bound players, but the pacer decided to give this year’s IPL a miss in order to spend some time with his family.
