Mukesh Choudhary rejoins CSK squad after attending his mother’s last rites

Mukesh Choudhary has rejoined the Chennai Super Kings team after his mother's last rites. He had left for his hometown of Bhilwara in Rajasthan after CSK's last match in Hyderabad. Choudhary's mother, Prem Devi, passed away after a year-long illness. He joined the CSK squad on Wednesday night after returning from Bhilwara. Choudhary's return is a relief for the team management, especially with Khaleel Ahmed ruled out of IPL 2026.
