Chennai Super Kings Appoint Sriram Sridharan as Assistant Bowling Coach for IPL 2025
The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) franchise has announced the appointment of Sriram Sridharan as their assistant bowling coach ahead of the 2025 season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Sridharan, a former Indian and Tamil Nadu cricketer, will join Stephen Fleming, the head coach, and Eric Simmons, the bowling coach, in the Super Kings’ support staff.
Sridharan played eight One-Day Internationals (ODIs) for India, scoring 81 runs and picking up nine wickets with his left-arm spin. After his playing days, he served as a spin-bowling coach and consultant for the Australian cricket team for two years. In the IPL, he worked as an assistant coach for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) franchise last season.
CSK announced Sridharan’s appointment on their official Instagram handle, captioning the post, "Say Yellove to our assistant bowling Coach Sriram Sridharan! Brought up from the tracks of Chepauk to a packed portfolio of coaching tenures in Australia and Bangladesh, he embarks on this new journey with the pride!"
The franchise’s 2025 campaign will begin on March 23 with a blockbuster match against arch-rivals Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Chepauk Stadium in Chennai. The Super Kings, who missed out on the play-offs last year, will be eager to put in an improved performance in the upcoming season.
