CSK Unveil IPL 2026 Match-Day Kit

Dhoni, Gaikwad join pre-season camp as ‘Yellove’ jersey returns with modern touch

March 1, 2026: With the 19th edition of the Indian Premier League just weeks away, Chennai Super Kings have officially launched their 2026 match-day kit. The unveiling coincides with the team’s pre-season training camp at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, where skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad and veteran icon MS Dhoni have begun preparations. The new jersey retains the franchise’s iconic “Yellove” canary yellow while incorporating sleek modern elements that celebrate its bond with fans.

The 2026 kit prominently features Etihad Airways as principal sponsor and continues the shoulder camouflage detailing introduced in 2021 as a tribute to the Indian Armed Forces. The Player Edition jersey is crafted from advanced moisture-wicking recycled polyester fabric, designed to withstand the intense Indian summer. CSK has launched three merchandise tiers: the Player Edition (₹4,999–₹5,999), Replica Edition (₹2,499–₹2,999), and budget-friendly Fan/Stadium Tee (₹799–₹1,299), catering to supporters across price segments.

Official kits will be available via the CSK website, global merchandise partner PlayR, The Souled Store, and in-stadium outlets at Chepauk on match days. The squad’s arrival in Chennai marks the start of rigorous training sessions ahead of their season opener on March 28, as the five-time champions gear up for another IPL campaign.
