CSK Considers Coaching Options After Stephen Fleming's Departure
Following Stephen Fleming's departure as Chennai Super Kings' head coach after IPL 2026, the franchise is considering new coaching options.

Meanwhile, ex-India opener S Ramesh recommends Michael Hussey, CSK's batting coach since 2018, urging the team to grant him full authority. Ramesh also criticized rumors of signing Eoin Morgan for a high salary, calling it an unnecessary expense.
