Ghosh suffered a right-foot fracture during the game
Chennai Super Kings suffered another injury blow as pacer Ramakrishna Ghosh was on Sunday ruled out of the IPL 2026 with a fractured right foot.
Ghosh suffered the niggle during CSK’s match against Mumbai Indians at Chepauk, which the home side won by 8 wicket.
“Ramakrishna Ghosh sustained a fracture to his right foot during the CSK v MI match at Chepauk. He will take no further part in IPL 2026,” the franchise announced on its official 'X' handle.
The CSK is yet to announce a replacement for Ghosh, who took 1 for 24 in three overs against MI.
The Maharashtra pacer is the latest in the line of CSK players who have missed this IPL season with injuries. The others include Ayush Mhatre, Khaleel Ahmed, and Nathan Ellis.
Former captain MS Dhoni is also recovering from a calf injury and is yet to play a match this season.
Chennai Super Kings' IPL 2026 Season So Far
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have navigated a challenging, inconsistent 2026 IPL campaign, currently holding a 4-5 win-loss record. Positioned sixth, they find themselves in a precarious playoff race where they must string together consecutive victories to break into the top four.
Despite this, their clinical eight-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians on May 2 provided a much-needed morale boost, showcasing a disciplined bowling performance and a composed run chase.
Adding to their narrative of bad luck, the match proved bittersweet for debutant Ramakrishna Ghosh. The 28-year-old pacer delivered an impressive first outing, returning figures of 1/24 in his three overs, including the prized wicket of Suryakumar Yadav. His impact was immediate; he also pulled off a spectacular diving catch to dismiss Will Jacks earlier in the game.
Unfortunately, it was the last piece of action the all-rounder participated in the IPL 2026.
