CSK reshapes coaching staff ahead of IPL 2027 season

Chennai Super Kings has made another key decision in restructuring its coaching department, with veteran coach Mike Hussey no longer part of the franchise's setup. Hussey had been considered a crucial pillar of the coaching staff under former head coach Stephen Fleming's tenure at the IPL franchise.

The move comes in the wake of Fleming's recent departure from his position as head coach, triggering a broader reorganization within the Super Kings' technical team. The Australian cricket legend had served as a batting consultant and assistant coach, playing an instrumental role in the franchise's strategic planning and player development.

With both Fleming and Hussey now out of the picture, CSK is preparing for a notable transformation in its coaching structure heading into the 2027 IPL season. The franchise is expected to introduce fresh perspectives and a new approach to its on-field operations.

The Super Kings have won five IPL titles under Fleming's leadership and will be looking to maintain their competitive edge despite the significant changes in their coaching hierarchy. The exact composition of the new coaching staff has not yet been announced by the franchise.
