CSK vs KKR IPL 2026 Live: Three-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders will be aiming to win their first game of the IPL 2026 season as they face off against Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidamabram Stadium in Chennai on Tuesday. Ruturaj Gaikwad’s CSK finally got a win on the board after three successive losses, hammering Delhi Capitals by 23 runs last weekend.
It will be a special occasion for CSK fans after their former skipper MS Dhoni is set to make his first appearance of the season against KKR on Tuesday. Dhoni has been ruled out of the first four matches of IPL 2026 due to calf strain but appears to have recovered from the injury as he was seen training with the team. But what will be bad news for his fans, his return has been delayed further as he had limited time in the nets and only took a few throwdowns.
CSK will be pleased with the return to form of opener and wicketkeeper Sanju Samson, who smashed his 4th IPL ton and first one for Chennai on Saturday. Samson was traded for Rs 18 crore from Rajasthan Royals to Chennai Super Kings before start of IPL 2026 season.
Ajinkya Rahane’s KKR will be desperate for a win while their new opener Finn Allen will be keep to score some big runs in IPL 2026 season. Allen had shot into prominence after scoring a century in the T20 World Cup 2026 semifinal against South Africa.
“It’s the nature of T20 cricket, trying to take the game on. It’s only been a couple of games, so you can’t judge too much. Personally, I’ve had good starts in the first two games, but I would have liked to kick on more. Preparation has been good and hopefully it’s around the corner,” Allen said about his starts in the pre-match press conference in Chennai on Monday.
“It’s easy to get caught up in thinking you need to go harder, especially with an extra batter in the side. But for me, I know I can score quickly when I’m going well. It’s about not getting carried away and finding the balance between giving yourself a chance to get set and playing positively,” Allen added.
CSK have a huge edge when it comes to head-to-head record against KKR in the IPL with a massive 20 wins as compared to 11 losses in 32 matches so far, with one game ending in a no-result. The home team will definitely try to extend their winning streak against the Knight Riders.
