Zakary Foulkes is a fast-rising New Zealand all-rounder born on June 5, 2002, known for pace, aggression, and impact. A right-arm seamer who thrives in pressure moments, he has shown a knack for breaking partnerships across formats and attacking with the new ball. With the bat, Foulkes adds lower-order firepower, contributing quick runs rather than volume. Signed by Chennai Super Kings ahead of IPL 2026, he brings fresh energy, bounce, and disruption to the attack. More than depth, Foulkes fits CSK’s preference for multi-phase contributors who can influence games early with the ball and finish innings with intent.
