Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are facing a challenging start to IPL 2026, having lost their first three matches and currently sitting at the bottom of the points table. Under the captaincy of Ruturaj Gaikwad, the team is struggling, partly due to the absence of their legendary former captain, MS Dhoni, who is sidelined with a calf strain. Reports indicate that Dhoni is unlikely to play in the upcoming match against Delhi Capitals at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on April 11.
