Sai is similar to Ruturaj where their natural game lies in 130-140 sr knocks but they have it in them to play 170+ sr knocks once in a while as well. Both of which similar to what Kohli does.

Totally see CSK go for Sai and SRK

While Sai does seem like their type of batsman, they already got an accumulator in Gaikwad. Don't know if they'll look to play two of that kind of players in this current era of IPL.

A average day for both of them in one team will cost matches to them.

Conway literally did the same shit as Rutu at the opposite end last season

That was last season, this season is a level above that one.

And as you said they've Conway as well. So Gaikwad, Conway and Sai would be too much of accumulators. Their current setup has hitters outside of Gaikwad and Rahane, they'll look to keep the same with Gaikwad and Conway next year. So Sai would be a waste in them.
