“I’m grateful to the management and skipper (MS) Dhoni for their continued faith,” added Radhakrishnan, who served as manager and logistics manager of the Indian team between December 2006 and November 2009, including the inaugural ICC World Twenty20 in South Africa that India clinched under Dhoni.
“I’m looking forward to many super years. I can’t wait for the 2018 season to start and make sure that our fans get a lot of updates,” concluded Radhakrishnan.
The Lions won the IPL twice, finished runners-up on four occasions and qualified to the Playoffs in all eight seasons between 2008 and 2015 to emerge as one of the most successful franchises in the competition.
The 11th edition kicks off on April 7 with CSK taking on defending champions Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. “Russell is very methodical in what he does. He has worked with the Indian team and has been with CSK for a decade,” said KS Viswanathan, CEO, CSK.
