Chennai will become the sixth team to play 200 IPL matches or more after Mumbai Indians (221), Royal Challengers Bangalore (215), Delhi Capitals (214), Kolkata Knight Riders (214) and Punjab Kings (208). It was suspended from the 2016 and 2017 editions, along with Rajasthan Royals, for its involvement in betting activities.

The Men in Yellow have played 24 matches in the playoffs, the most by any team in the history of the tournament, and have made the cut to the last-four stage in 11 of the 12 completed seasons they participated in so far, missing out only once in 2020, when it ended seventh on the points table.

The defending champion will be looking for a turnaround on Tuesday after losing its first four matches of IPL 2022 and equalling its longest losing streak which came back in 2010 - the year it went on to lift its maiden title.
