Chennai Super Kings Revamp Coaching Staff Without Batting Coach for IPL 2027
Chennai Super Kings have revamped their coaching staff for IPL 2027 under new head coach Zaheer Khan, notably deciding not to appoint a designated batting coach. This follows the departure of long-serving batting coach Michael Hussey and head coach Stephen Fleming after three seasons without playoff appearances. The revised staff includes Mohit Sharma as bowling coach, Albie Morkel as assistant coach, and Gareth Batty as second assistant coach, with Batty potentially handling some batting duties. The franchise confirmed the current coaching lineup is complete.
