Chennai Super Kings: franchise history

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) entered the Indian Premier League as one of its original franchises in 2008, with the team built around the Chennai market and an early leadership core that included MS Dhoni. Their first campaign ended in the inaugural final, where Rajasthan Royals won on the last ball. A semifinal defeat followed in 2009, but CSK converted that early competitiveness into consecutive championships in 2010 and 2011. The 2011 title was secured against Royal Challengers Bangalore, after the team had established Chepauk as a particularly strong home venue.

CSK then reached the finals in 2012, 2013 and 2015 without winning them: Kolkata Knight Riders, Mumbai Indians and Mumbai Indians respectively took those finals. A disciplinary ruling in 2015 suspended the franchise for the 2016 and 2017 seasons, interrupting its participation rather than ending the team’s IPL history. On returning in 2018, CSK won the championship again, defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad in the final. They were runners-up to Mumbai Indians in the 2019 final, then finished seventh in 2020 before rebounding to win the 2021 final against Kolkata Knight Riders.

In 2022 they finished near the bottom, but the side returned to the summit in 2023. The 2023 final against Gujarat Titans was completed using the reserve day and a rain-shortened chase; CSK won by five wickets under the DLS method. That result gave the franchise its fifth IPL title, in 2010, 2011, 2018, 2021 and 2023. The five-title total places CSK alongside Mumbai Indians as the IPL’s joint-most successful franchise through the documented seasons. The MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai is identified by both the IPL and ESPNcricinfo as CSK’s home ground, although individual seasons have included relocated matches.

The evidence reviewed did not identify a former official team name; “Super Kings” is the documented franchise name from the IPL era. As of 2026-10-03, no official IPL 2027 CSK squad announcement was located, so this profile deliberately does not turn any current roster page or 2026 squad into a 2027 roster.

Recent seasons: 2024–2026

  • 2024 — CSK did not qualify for the IPL playoffs: Royal Challengers Bengaluru beat Chennai in the final league match and qualified, while CSK finished level on points but behind on the applicable tiebreak.
  • 2025 — The official IPL playoff-qualification update listed Chennai Super Kings among the teams eliminated from the playoff race.
  • 2026 — The completed official IPL points table records Chennai Super Kings eighth, with 14 matches, six wins, eight losses and 12 points; only the top four are marked as playoff qualifiers, so CSK missed the playoffs.

Chennai Super Kings squad

2026 season reference

Officially documented 2026 players (partial, not a full squad): checked against the dated team/league source (15 Nov 2025–14 May 2026 (official retained names, two auction buys and four dated replacement notices)). Partial 2026 reference: 18 officially documented names, not a complete final-season squad. The league confirmed 16 pre-auction retained players; four were subsequently replaced and two auction acquisitions were separately confirmed. Other auction signings have not been fully reconciled from an accessible official list. This is not a 2027 squad. Only existing matching 4xSports player profiles are linked; player statistics here are not used as source evidence.
