CHENNAI SUPER KINGS: Before IPL 2026, CSK team has suffered a big setback. Gujarat Titans team has given this blow to five-time champion Chennai. Before IPL 2026, the Yellow Army had expressed its desire to trade a particular player from Gujarat Titans, but the Gujarat team rejected this offer from Chennai and gave a big blow to the five-time champion team. But now the question is, who is the player whom the CSK team wanted to include in its camp?

Gujarat gave a big blow to CSK

Chennai Super Kings team was trying to include Washington Sundar in their team for IPL 2026, but now their efforts have failed. Because Gujarat Titans have rejected this trade offer. According to the report of ‘The Indian Express’, Gujarat rejected Chennai’s offer for Sundar and has clearly refused to trade Sundar. The report suggests that CSK’s move has come at a time when the team is close to completing the high-profile swap deal between Ravindra Jadeja and Sanju Samson. After the retirement of Ravichandran Ashwin and the possible transfer of Jadeja, Chennai Super Kings will need a spin all-rounder, who can perform well with both bat and ball and play an important role in the team’s victory.

This player is not going anywhere!

Gujarat Titans have made it clear that they consider Sundar an important part of their future plans. The franchise had bought Sundar for Rs 3.2 crore before IPL 2025 and used him in only 6 matches, but since then his value has increased significantly. In the last one year, Sundar has proved himself as an all-format cricketer for India. His power-hitting seen in the Australia T20I series has increased his value considerably.

What will CSK do now?

After the failure of Washington Sundar’s trade, CSK is now facing a new kind of problem. In IPL history, Chennai has always built its team around spinners, like Muralitharan, R Ashwin, Shadab Jakati, Ravindra Jadeja, Imran Tahir and Harbhajan Singh. But now Ashwin has taken retirement and Jadeja can also be traded with Sanju Samson. In such a situation, now the franchise will have to look for new options to fill this important spin slot in the IPL 2026 auction.
