Guyana Amazon Warriors coach Prasanna Agoram, who is famously known as Pdogg has made a massive statement. Speaking on YouTube, he said the Hardik Pandya trade to CSK is pretty much done. According to him, Hardik is going to Chennai and in return CSK are sending Shivam Dube and Khaleel Ahmed to Mumbai Indians. Prasanna said “don’t call it a leak anymore, the deal is almost confirmed.” 

This has gone viral on social media and a lot of people are taking it seriously because Prasanna has been right on a few things before, but at the same time both teams are completely silent. Mumbai Indians had earlier said they weren’t even talking trades till their season review finished, and nothing has changed on that front publicly.

After this news, CSK fans are excited about getting Hardik, while giving away Dube and Khaleel, others not so much. A few weeks back the same rumour had bigger names like Brevis or Ayush Mhatre involved, but those seem to have been rejected. There has been no official hint or confirmation from either MI or CSK regarding this trade. 

Hardik Pandya's Tirumala visit comes amid growing CSK trade speculation

Amid all the rumours regarding the trade, Star Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya grabbed attention with his completely shaved head as he visited the Tirumala Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple in the early hours of Sunday along with his girlfriend, Mahieka Sharma. The couple took part in the Suprabhata Seva and had darshan of Lord Venkateswara through the temple's protocol arrangements. After the darshan, the priests gave the couple Vedic blessings and presented them with sacred tirtha prasadam, following the temple’s usual customs.

While the India all-rounder took a break from cricket to visit the Tirumala temple, talk about his IPL future has only grown louder. Pandya sits right at the centre of the conversation. He returned to Mumbai Indians in a high-profile trade from Gujarat Titans ahead of the 2024 season, was named captain, and has remained one of the team’s highest-profile players ever since. His performances and the side’s results have kept him under constant scrutiny throughout this second stint. So far there has been no official word from either Mumbai Indians or Pandya about what comes next. But Prasanna Agoram has made a claim that this deal is all set to be finalised and Hardik will be coming to Chennai Super Kings.
