IPL 2026: 5 Wicketkeeper-Batters Who Can Replace MS Dhoni at Chennai Super Kings

Hailing from MS Dhoni’s state of Jharkhand, Ishan Kishan can potentially succeed former Chennai Super Kings. Ishan Kishan was roped in by Sunrisers Hyderabad for 11.25 crore, but had a moderate IPL season, amassing 354 runs, including a century and a fifty, at an average of 35.40 in 14 matches. SRH might release Jharkhand wicketkeeper into the auction pool or trade him if the option is available.

If Chennai Super Kings make a move at the auction or through a trade deal, Kishan’s aggressive batting and sharp wicketkeeping skills could fill the void left by MS Dhoni. Hailing from Dhoni’s state, Kishan carries the legacy and has the possibility of becoming a fan favorite while bringing energy and experience to the CSK lineup in the post-Dhoni era.
