3 Players Who Could Replace Nathan Ellis for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2026

South African fast bowler Ottniel Baartman is a like-for-like replacement for Nathan Ellis. He is regarded as one of the best death bowlers in South Africa and previously helped Sunrisers Eastern Cape secure back-to-back SA20 titles in 2023 and 2024.

The Proteas cricketer recently signed with the Hyderabad Kingsmen for the Pakistan Super League (PSL). However, a lucrative offer from the Indian tournament could force him to withdraw from the PSL and join the IPL.

Sean Abbott

His proven consistency in high-pressure situations makes him an ideal candidate for franchise cricket. During the recent Big Bash League season, Sean Abbott picked up 11 wickets in 10 matches at an economy rate of 7.26.

Gerald Coetzee

South African speedster Gerald Coetzee is also one of the options for Chennai Super Kings. The 25-year-old fast bowler has experience of playing in the Indian Premier League.

Injuries remain a persistent concern regarding Gerald Coetzee. He missed the T20 World Cup 2026 and played only three matches during the recent SA20 season.
