Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have made significant moves on the first day of the IPL 2025 Mega Auction, securing key players like Ravichandran Ashwin and Noor Ahmad to strengthen their squad. The five-time IPL champions now have Rs. 15.60 crore left in their purse heading into the second day of the auction, with 14 slots still to be filled, including three overseas players.

These players form the core of the team, but the franchise is looking to bolster their squad with more talent, as evidenced by their Day 1 signings.
While CSK has made significant strides with their auction buys, they also released a few players ahead of the auction.
