IPL 2024: Team-wise stats and records at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai

MA Chidambaram Stadium is the home ground of Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League. The stadium is also known as Chepauk, the name adapted from where it is located. It is also India's second oldest venue, established in 1916.

Super-kings have a brilliant home record of 70.31 percent, which is the most by an IPL team on their home ground.
