Khaleel suffered the injury during CSK's previous game against KKR
"Looking to be aggressive, put revs on the ball and get the ball to spin will definitely help him a lot," Sridharan Sriram says of Noor Ahmad after the bowler's three-for against KKR
We have a new No. 5 on the Orange Cap table too. Here's how things stand after Match No. 22 at IPL 2026
Things haven't gone their way with key players going out for one reason or another, but KKR haven't helped themselves with their decisions in the field
CSK are ninth on the points table, while KKR are the only team without a win this season
Ruturaj Gaikwad has struggled at the top of the order - not too many runs, poor strike rate - while Ayush Mhatre has emerged as one of CSK's most important batters this season
His form, his batting position, his approach...nothing seems to be working so far for his new IPL franchise
He faced throwdowns from the support staff and didn't keep wicket ahead of CSK's fixture against KKR
He is fast, he hits the deck hard, he picks up wickets, and Jamie Overton can smack a long ball or two too, all of which might help CSK turn their season around
The news will come as a boost to KKR, who are at the bottom on the IPL points table after failing to win even one of their four games so far
CSK have one win in four games, while KKR are yet to taste victory with three defeats and one no-result
