Gareth Batty Set to Join CSK as Batting Coach for IPL 2027

Former England cricketer Gareth Batty is expected to join Chennai Super Kings as their batting coach ahead of IPL 2027, following discussions with the franchise.

Former England off-spinner Gareth Batty is anticipated to become the batting coach for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) as they prepare for IPL 2027. Reports indicate that discussions are ongoing, and an official announcement may be made soon.

Batty, who has a history with CSK head coach Zaheer Khan from their time at Worcestershire, has previously served as the head coach of Surrey, leading them to three consecutive County Championship titles. His coaching tenure has seen several players earn Test call-ups.

CSK has faced challenges in recent IPL seasons, failing to reach the playoffs since their title win in 2023. The franchise is undergoing changes, including the recent appointment of Zaheer Khan as head coach, replacing Stephen Fleming, who held the position for 16 years.
