Texas Super Kings’ yellow-colored jersey features a roaring lion with maroon stripes and MLC’s logo. The major difference between the three jerseys of the Super Kings franchise are stripes – Green in the JSK jersey and Camouflage in the CSK jersey. Instead of wearing caps, the TSK players will be seen in yellow hats, which feature the logo of the franchise in the middle.
Faf du Plessis-led TSK will kick start their campaign against the Los Angeles Knight Riders in the MLC 2023 opening game at home on Friday, July 14. The Knight Riders franchise have got arguably the strongest side on the paper for the upcoming season.
Several current and former Chennai Super Kings players will be seen playing for TSK in the inaugural MLC. Former CSK pacer Dwayne Bravo will once again take the field under the leadership of Faf.
