The T20 World Cup 2026, which concluded on March 8, saw a heavy Chennai Super Kings influence, with at least eight squad members representing seven different

\n\n

nations.

With the IPL 2026 starting from March 28, the CSK team is already in practice. The likes of Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sarfaraz Khan have joined the camp, while MS Dhoni has also been in Chennai for the pre-season.

India became the T20 World Cup champion for the third time and CSK had two representatives in the Indian side as well. Here's a look at how the CSK contingent fared in the tournament.

\n\n

Sanju Samson (India): The tournament's crowning achievement belonged to Sanju Samson, who was named Player of the Tournament. Samson was arguably the most impactful batter of the competition, amassing 321 runs in just five matches at a blistering strike rate of 199.38. His knockout stage was legendary, featuring three consecutive high-impact scores: an unbeaten 97 in the Quarter-final, and identical scores of 89 in both the Semi-final and the Final.

\n\n

Shivam Dube (India): India's title-winning campaign was further bolstered by Shivam Dube, who functioned as a reliable middle-order engine. Dube played nine matches, scoring 235 runs and taking 6 wickets; his cameo of 26 runs off 8 balls in the final was instrumental in securing the 96-run victory over New Zealand.

Dewald Brevis (South Africa): Provided middle-order stability, accumulating 207 runs over eight matches with a strike rate of 146.80.

Jamie Overton (England): Proved his utility as a genuine all-rounder, claiming 9 wickets with a best of 3/18 while contributing lower-order runs.

\n\n

Nathan Ellis (Australia): The Australian pacer remained a death-bowling specialist, highlighted by a standout spell of 4/12 against Ireland, finishing with 5 wickets from four appearances.

Akeal Hosein (West Indies): Led the West Indian spin department with 7 wickets in six matches.

Noor Ahmad (Afghanistan): Noor Ahmad had a fruitless World Cup. He was part of Afghanistan's spin attack, but he remained wicketless in his two appearances as the Afghans were knocked out from the group stages.

Matt Henry (New Zealand): Led the Kiwi attack with clinical precision, finishing the tournament with 10 wickets and providing the early breakthroughs that guided his team to the final in Ahmedabad.
