USA: To Texas, the Super Kings bring their air of invincibility. TSK's base of operations will be the Grand Prairie stadium outside of Dallas. Stephen Fleming, the guiding force behind the Super Kings for 15 years and its current head coach, will oversee the coaching staff at TSK, which also includes Albie Morkel and Eric Simmons as assistant and bowling coaches, respectively.
In front of a sold-out Grand Prairie stadium and a sea of yellow, TSK will hope for a strong start before their historic maiden MLC encounter against LAKR.
After acquiring the 37-year-old Juan Theron at the draft, TSK raised some questions. He just announced his departure from the 50-over format for the USA due to fitness issues. Having played in 129 T20 Internationals, Theron does, however, provide a wealth of T20 bowling expertise.

Calvin Savage, who is capable of using the long handle and is likely the fastest bowler in America, was selected by TSK as their second choice. Cameron Stevenson, a paceman, was also signed by TSK despite being fired by USA.
Sami Aslam, a former Pakistani opener, will need to win over some people back home. After his patience for a comeback with the PCB fizzled out, Aslam immigrated to the US. Lahiru Milantha, a brazen wicketkeeper, and Milind Kumar, a former player for Delhi and RCB, are the other excellent batting possibilities for the team. TSK was only able to secure Zia Shehzad as a domestic spinner.
After heading the Jo'burg franchise at SA20, Faf du Plessis will take on the responsibility of leading yet another Super Kings franchise. After a fantastic IPL season with CSK, Devon Conway and Mitchell Santner return to professional cricket with TSK. Dwayne Bravo, the CSK bowling coach and a T20 Goliath, will don his sock again in the hopes of adding to his total of 615 T20 wickets.
In the middle order, David Miller will add the force. Imran Tahir, a cunning old fox, was hired by TSK after Rayudu canceled due to personal obligations. The remaining members of the international team are Daniel Sams and powerful all-arounder Gerald Coetzee.
