IPL teams performance in the playoffs

Chennai Super Kings

Chennai Super Kings has been one of the most consistent teams in IPL

Chennai Super Kings has stood out as one of the most formidable teams in the tournament's history. Led by MS Dhoni, this franchise set the tournament on fire right from the word go and made it to the finals of the inaugural season. Barring 2016 and 2017, when the team was not in action, CSK had managed to make it to the final four in all the remaining eight seasons and ended up as the champions on two occasions.

The current season seems no different for the 'Men in Yellow' who have made a roaring comeback to the tournament. Led by MS Dhoni, the Chennai franchise looks to be in chugging along well with the senior players stepping up to the fore. With 7 wins thus far, CSK looks all set to confirm its playoff's berth soon.
