Five Time IPL champions Chennai Super Kings are set to begin their IPL 2026 campaign against Rajasthan Royals on March 30 at Guwahati. It will be an away game to kickstart the season for Chennai Super Kings. The IPL 2026 schedule comprising 20 matches was revealed today. Chennai Super Kings had a terrible season last year where they finished bottom of the points table for the first time in the history of IPL. They managed just four wins across the season but this time they have made a few changes and will be hoping for a better performance.
Chennai Super Kings will then come to home for their second game which is set to be played against Punjab Kings. CSK do not have a good H2H record against the PBKS side but they will be confident enough playing at home. The third match of the season will be against Royal Challengers Bengaluru which is going to be a blockbuster. That will be played at the home ground of RCB in Bengaluru on 5th April so CSK will have their task cut out. They will have a five day break after which they will then take on Delhi Capitals at Chennai on the 11th of April. These are the four matches of CSK that have been revealed so far.
