The team, led by the iconic Mahendra Singh Dhoni, has been one of the most consistent teams in the tournament. However, they had a poor showing in the 2022 season, finishing in the ninth position after the league stage.

The upcoming 2023 season is believed to be Dhoni's last as a player. Last year, he relinquished the captaincy of CSK, but took over midway through the competition after Ravindra Jadeja failed to meet expectations. Check out CSK's detailed schedule below.
CSK has acquired Ben Stokes in the auction, and the English cricketer is considered a potential successor to Dhoni if the Ranchi native decides to retire after this year's tournament. CSK is positioned in Group B, along with Punjab Kings, Gujarat Titans, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Royal Challengers Bangalore.
