Sanju Samson is playing for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2026.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are set to clash with Punjab Kings (PBKS) at Chepauk Stadium in their second game of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. It will be their first home game and they would want to bounce back after a poor start to their campaign.
Sanju Samson will be in the spotlight yet again as he will play at Chepauk Stadium for CSK for the first time. He could not make an impact in his opening game against Rajasthan Royals (RR), getting out for six runs.
Samson parted ways with his former team RR ahead of IPL 2026 and joined CSK. Through a trade deal, he was transferred to Chennai in exchange for Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran.
Samson, who has been given the responsibility of an opener at CSK, flopped in the opening game and will aim for a big comeback in the upcoming clash. While he will play at Chepauk Stadium in CSK jersey for the first time, he has played a few T20 games at the venue in the past.
