Chennai Super Kings Revamp Coaching Staff Ahead of IPL 2027 Season
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have overhauled their support staff ahead of the 2027 IPL season, appointing Zaheer Khan as head coach and adding Gareth Batty, Albie Morkel, and Mohit Sharma as assistant coaches. Zaheer Khan is set to hold key talks with MS Dhoni regarding player retention before the November 15 deadline. The changes follow a disappointing season and the departure of long-time coach Stephen Fleming. CSK's announcement included a playful reference to a notable 2012 IPL moment involving Virat Kohli.
