‘That’s the management’s call’: Stephen Fleming on his future as CSK head coach | Cricket News

3 min readChennaiMay 19, 2026 08:48 AM IST As the five-wicket defeat to Sunrisers Hyderabad pushed Chennai Super Kings to the brink, their hopes of qualification for the play-offs isn’t in their hands anymore. Should they fail to make it, it would be the third successive season that Chennai have failed to make the play-offs. With the pressure piling on head coach Stephen Fleming, the Kiwi has refused to confirm his continuity, revealing the decision would be taken by the management. Since arriving at the franchise as a player during the inaugural edition of the IPL in 2008, Fleming took charge as the head coach in the 2009 and has since become the longest serving coach at any IPL franchise. With 5 titles and two Champions League titles, Fleming is the most decorated coach in IPL, but after another failed shot at making the play-offs, there has been growing displeasure among the CSK faithful. Those noises had reached Fleming which he acknowledged early in the season. And speaking shortly after their defeat to Hyderabad, Fleming …

Why Ruturaj Gaikwad’s 15 off 21 was a problem for CSK against SRH

4 min readMay 18, 2026 09:55 PM IST Off the 21st delivery he faced, Ruturaj Gaikwad finally took the aerial route off Pat Cummins. As Eshan Malinga pouched it deep square-leg, and Gaikwad dragged himself off, it felt as if the packed house at Chepauk was more relieved than stunned into silence. 15 off 21. No boundary or a six to show. A strike-rate of 71.42. Opening the batting and returning to the pavilion after 11.3 overs, the numbers said it all. In a tournament where openers and the top three have been setting the early pace with quickfire knocks, Gaikwad has been the opposite. His strike-rate of 120.67 is way below what modern T20 template demands. Chennai Super Kings’ opponent on the night, Sunrisers Hyderabad, have at their disposal two openers who strike at 209.13 and 171.09. As the broadcaster put out a graphic, Gaikwad’s strike-rate of 125 is the lowest among all openers who have faced a minimum of 200 deliveries this season.

Published by Webster

IPL 2026, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) vs Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) Playing 11, Full Squad, Players List: Will he or won’t he? MS Dhoni batted in the nets alongside Prashant Veer for 30 minutes on Sunday, facing the throwdown specialists and then the spinners. By the time the clock struck 7.30 PM, he was back in the dressing room. He had done a bit of warm-up in the indoor arena before that, with no trainer by his side for a change. The 44-year-old did a few stretching exercises before waiting for around 15 minutes for his turn to bat. He has technically been part of the squad but Dhoni has thus far been nowhere close to actually playing a match this season, even not travelling with the team on most away games. But, this could potentially be his last game at the Chepauk Stadium and he has said in the past that he would like to bid goodbye to the IPL here. Could this be the day that he returns? The result of this match will …

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s first-ever win against Chennai Super Kings at Chepauk plummets hosts to another low as they lose four in a row at home. It was an outing that was befitting their position in the points table before the game began. Hyderabad, placed ninth, and Chennai at the last spot, have been off-colour this season. Their losses have all been convincing and pitted against each other, they ended up taking the game deep before Hyderabad found a way to overcome Chennai for the first time here. The five-wicket win keeps them alive in the race for the play-offs as Chennai once again surrendered their fortress. Looking ahead With this season going nowhere close to play-off qualification, MS Dhoni and Stephen Fleming had already hinted at planning for the season. Dewald Brewis was the newest introduction to the XI in place of the struggling Rachin Ravindra, while Sam Curran also came in. All of it meant, from a Dad’s Army, they went on to field one of their youngest XIs with four of them – Noor …

Ambidextrous Sri Lanka bowler Kamindu Mendis pulled off arguably the catch of the season as he played a vital part in stopping the rampage of a well-set Dewald Brevis as Sunrisers Hyderabad skittled out the Chennai Super Kings for 154 at the Chepauk on Friday. It happened in the 13th over with Brevis batting at 42 slapped Harshal Patel over the inner circle only to find a flying Mendis, who stretched both his hands like a football goalkeeper and grabbed hold of the ball, sending the South African back to reduce CSK to 114/5. “It was my left hand. When I do fielding I practice both sides and it happened naturally. I am comfortable with my right arm, my dominant hand is right, but when I practice I do both,” Mendis said in a post-innings chat about the catch and his bowling.
