History

The team's first season in the PBL was in 2016.[4][5] Vijay Prabhakaran initially owned the franchise from 2016 to 2019.[6][7] In December 2019, Sivakumar who owns a regional badminton league named Tamil Nadu Badminton Super League acquired the franchise to become its new owner.[2] The franchise also changed its name into Chennai Superstarz for the 2020 season.[8]

Rio Olympics silver medallist P. V. Sindhu was part of the team for the first three seasons.[6][9] They won their first and only PBL title in 2017. With P. V. Sindhu in their roster, they defeated Mumbai Rockets 3–2 in the final at New Delhi.[10] During the third and fourth seasons, the team finished sixth. They failed to get past Northeastern Warriors in the semi-finals (-1)–3. The team is currently coached by Aravindan Samiappan.

Home venue

From 2017, the Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor stadium serves as the home for the team.[11] The stadium located in Chennai, has a seating capacity of 5,000.[12] In 2016, there was no home venue for the team due to unavailability of Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor stadium in Chennai and Coimbatore.[6]
