Mumbai, March 24: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) begin a new era under the leadership of Ravindra Jadeja when they begin their title defence against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022.

Two days before the season opener at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who led the franchise to four IPL titles, handed over the captaincy to star all-rounder Jadeja.

Now, the current title-holders CSK face KKR in a rematch from the 2021 final. And it will be a battle led by two new captains.

While there is a new leader taking charge for Chennai, KKR too will begin their quest for a third title under the leadership of Shreyas Iyer, who was bought by the two-time champions for a whopping Rs 12.25 Crore at the mega auction in February to replace a released Eoin Morgan at the helm.

KKR retained four players during the retention and revamped their squad with the addition of a new skipper in Shreyas along with many other stars including Ajinkya Rahane and Sam Billings, while they also bought back the likes of Pat Cummins, Shivam Mavi and Nitish Rana.

CSK, on the other hand, retained their core including Jadeja, Dhoni, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Moeen Ali and also bought back several former players during the auction including Robin Uthappa, Dwayne Bravo and Ambati Rayudu.

Both teams will look to get their season started with a win, especially when new leaders take charge of their respective sides for the first time. This will be Jadeja's first assignment as skipper of an IPL side, but Shreyas has led Delhi Capitals earlier.
