The [[Chennai Super Kings]] (CSK) franchise cricket team based in [[Chennai]], [[Tamil Nadu]], India, plays in the [[Indian Premier League]] (IPL). They are one of the eight teams that competed in the [[2018 Indian Premier League]].

Kings retained their former skipper MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina and all rounder Ravindra Jadeja from their [[Chennai Super Kings in 2015|IPL 2015]] squad for 33 crores before [[List of 2018 Indian Premier League personnel changes|2018 player auction]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/news/ipl-player-retention-2018-rcb-retain-virat-kohli-ms-dhoni-returns-to-csk/articleshow/62367936.cms|title=Dhoni, Raina and Jadeja retained by CSK in 2018 IPL|work=[[The Times of India]]|date=9 January 2018}}</ref>
