Chennai Super Kings need new strategies, new plans, and most importantly, they need the right balance in their team to win matches. The basics have been missing from the team, which has caused a disastrous start to their IPL 2026 campaign. After playing three games so far, they have been winless, struggling with their form, and failing to win matches.
While some of their key players are yet to be ready, the fans have started questioning Ruturaj Gaikwad’s captaincy and Stephen Fleming’s coaching stature. The era of Dhoni-Fleming was absolutely spectacular, where the team used to dominate matches with their fielding, batting, or even with their bowling. But so far, they have struggled with all three this year.

Amid the CSK’s struggling form, one of the cricket fans on X (formerly Twitter) asked CSK to appoint the former English batter Kevin Pietersen as their mentor for the ongoing edition. Meanwhile, Kevin’s hilarious reply to that fan has been going viral on the platform.
Kevin Pietersen hilariously replied, “Yes please. It is closer to the Maldives. Easier travel for me.”
Fans are desperately waiting for the franchise to get back to its winning ways. Meanwhile, this hilarious answer from Kevin Pietersen has everyone laughing. It’s worth mentioning that Kevin Pietersen has never played for Chennai Super Kings, but he carries a plethora of knowledge and coaching experience on his shoulders. The kind of struggle CSK are currently going through, fans think that someone as highly knowledgeable as Pietersen can pull CSK out of this hole.
Reason for Selecting the Maldives
Kevin Pietersen is a playful character both on and off the field. He cares about his team, his family, and the role he is pursuing at a certain level. Kevin Pietersen, who lives in England, is often seen opting for the Maldives for vacation during banter. During IPL 2025, despite being the mentor of the Delhi Capitals, he took a family vacation to the Maldives midseason.
However, the former DC mentor is not associated with the franchise this season and has decided not to participate in this edition in any way. Hemant Badani, the head coach of the franchise, has been leading the squad. He has been brilliant this season in making the tactical decisions. The DC has gotten a flying start to their new campaign, winning both matches so far.
