The Men in Yellow are the most consistent side in the IPL history. They have played a total of 132 games in the IPL over eight seasons, winning 79 of those. They boast of a staggering winning percentage of 59.84.

They have reached the knockout stages in all the eight seasons they have played in so far (2008-2015). Expectedly, no other franchise has accomplished this astonishing feat. The Super Kings have reached the final on six occasions, another terrific record for the IPL side.

MS Dhoni’s men have won the title twice, on back-to-back occasions in 2010 and 2011. He not only became the first ever Indian skipper to lift the trophy, but also the first and only captain to defend it. They have lost four times in the finals (2008,2012,2013,2015). They lost in the semi-finals(playoffs) twice, in 2009 and 2014.

Dhoni holds the record for the being longest-serving skipper of an IPL side. He led CSK in eight seasons so far.
