Chennai Super Kings pacer Khaleel Ahmed<\/a> has been ruled out of IPL<\/a> 2026 due to a quadriceps injury, dealing a blow to the franchise\u2019s bowling attack. The left-arm seamer, who featured in all five matches for CSK this season, reported discomfort in his right hip during their clash against Kolkata Knight Riders on April 14. “It is a grade 2 tear and the rehab will take at least 10-12 weeks,” said an IPL source.Khaleel had been one of CSK\u2019s more reliable performers in the early phase of IPL 2026. He picked up 2 wickets in 5 matches, with best figures of 1\/24 and maintained an economy rate of 8.67, often operating with the new ball.Khaleel Ahmed has had a decade-long IPL journey, evolving from a raw Under-19 prospect into a seasoned left-arm pace specialist. Over 76 matches, he has taken 91 wickets at an average of 27.19, representing three major franchises – Delhi Capitals, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings<\/a>. In 2023, he became the fastest Indian bowler to reach 50 IPL wickets and inn 2024, he was one of the most effective bowlers in the first six overs, taking 8 wickets at an economy of 8.87. Despite modest wicket returns, his role in providing early breakthroughs and control in the powerplay made him a key part of CSK\u2019s bowling plans. The 27-year-old has represented India in 11 ODIs and 18 T20Is, with his last international appearance coming in July 2024.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
