Aman Khan

Aman Hakim Khan is a high-utility Indian all-rounder who was acquired by Chennai Super Kings for ₹40 lakh at the IPL 2026 auction to strengthen their domestic core. Standing out as a powerful middle-order finisher and a handy right-arm medium pacer, Aman first gained significant attention when he was traded to Delhi Capitals for Shardul Thakur in 2023. During that season, he showcased his potential by smashing a maiden IPL half-century (51 off 44 balls) against Gujarat Titans under intense pressure. His raw power and 'breakout star' reputation from his time with Ricky Ponting at Delhi make him a strategic fit for CSK's middle-order depth.

While his 2025-26 domestic season included a challenging outing where he conceded a record number of runs in a List A match, his overall utility remains highly valued by the CSK management. Now representing Puducherry as their captain in domestic cricket, Aman has demonstrated his true ceiling with career-best bowling figures of 6/30 and a series of explosive T20 cameos with a strike rate often exceeding 140. His ability to contribute across all three departments, combined with the mentorship of Pravin Amre in his formative years, positions him as a versatile 'Triple Threat' player. As he enters the 2026 season in the Yellow Jersey, Aman is eager to prove his worth as a reliable match-winner in the shortest format.
