TATA Indian Premier League: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have denied claims made by veteran off-spin bowling all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin on the signing fee of South Africa batter Dewald Brevis as a replacement player in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, saying that the franchise acted as per the IPL player regulations.

Ashwin had said on his YouTube channel that when Brevis was supposed to be signed as a replacement, he was supposed to be signed at the base price, but was paid an extra amount to play in IPL 2025.

CSK, however, stated on Saturday that Brevis' signing was done in accordance with IPL rules and regulations, and that the batter was not offered more than the official figure stated in the advisory on April 18. Brevis had joined CSK for INR 2.2 crore, as a replacement for injured fast-bowler Gurjapneet Singh.
