The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are the joint-most successful team in the IPL so far, having won 5 titles to date. 

However, they finished last in the previous season, which appears to have prompted for an overhaul. Ahead of the IPL 2026 Auction, they let go of veteran Ravindra Jadeja, along with English all-rounder Sam Curran, bringing in Sanju Samson from Rajasthan Royals (RR).

They entered the auction with the second-highest purse, and have assembled an interesting lineup for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League.
