CSK vs DC Highlights: The "Yellow Brigade" finally found their hero in Sanju Samson, whose breathtaking unbeaten century propelled the Chennai Super Kings to a dominant 23-run win over Delhi Capitals on Saturday.

In a season marred by an indifferent start and absence of MS Dhoni, Samson took center stage at Chepauk, smashing 115 off 56 balls to guide CSK to a season-high 212/2. His historic knock, which featured 15 boundaries and 4 sixes, not only secured CSK’s first two points of the 2026 campaign but also made him the first player in IPL history to score a hundred for three different franchises.

This marks CSK’s first victory at Chepauk after a run of six consecutive defeats at the venue. They have also dominated Delhi Capitals here, winning eight of their last nine encounters, with the only loss coming in the 2025 season.
