As the BCCI unveiled the complete schedule for IPL 2026, Chennai Super Kings are set to begin their campaign on Monday, March 30 against Rajasthan Royals away from home at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. The match is scheduled to start at 7:30 PM IST.
Here’s the full schedule of Chennai Super Kings’ IPL 2026 fixtures, along with details of their updated squad, matches and venues.
Ahead of IPL 2026, the arrival of star wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson from Rajasthan Royals in a high-profile trade made headlines for the five-time champions. They parted ways with veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran in the deal. CSK talisman MS Dhoni remains part of the squad but will miss the initial matches due to an injury sustained during pre-season training.
