Chennai Super Kings didn't have the best of outings in Indian Premier League 2022, finishing a lowly ninth. CSK won just four out of the 14 matches they played in IPL 2022, finishing with the same number of points (8) as bottom-placed Mumbai Indians, but a slightly better net run-rate. The Chennai franchise also had its problems in regards to captaincy. Just before the start of the tournament MS Dhoni gave up CSK's captaincy with Ravindra Jadeja taking over. But with CSK faring poorly in IPL 2022, Jadeja handed back the captaincy of the team to Dhoni mid-way. The merry-go-round surely didn't help the team, but with Dhoni back at the helm there was a momentary upsurge in the team's fortunes.
