MS Dhoni, a cricketing maestro and former captain of the Indian cricket team, remains a central figure in the cricketing world. Especially with his anticipated return to the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season. Dhoni’s impact on the team was evident in the IPL 2023, where CSK clinched a record-equalling fifth championship under his leadership.
Despite widespread speculation about his retirement post-IPL 2023, Dhoni put such rumours to rest, expressing his desire to continue playing, fueled by the love he receives from fans. However, a knee surgery post-the 2023 IPL season raised questions about his fitness. Recent viral videos of his training sessions for IPL 2024 indicate his determination to return to the field.
Intriguingly, Dhoni’s recent Facebook update teasing a ‘new role’ in the upcoming season has sparked speculation. “I can’t wait for the new season and the new ‘role’. Stay tuned!” he wrote. Whether it pertains to coaching or some other aspect remains uncertain, prompting lively discussions on social media. With CSK’s pre-season camp underway, Dhoni’s official confirmation and the nature of his involvement are eagerly awaited.
When will MS. Dhoni join Chennai’s camp?
While Chennai Super Kings prepare for the IPL, notable players like Deepak Chahar are gearing up for a comeback, eyeing national selection. Chahar, who hasn’t played since December due to personal reasons, is set to play a pivotal role for CSK. His return to the national side is a significant goal, particularly with the T20 World Cup approaching.
Despite the exciting developments, the confirmed arrival of fan-favourite MS Dhoni is yet to be announced. Dhoni was recently seen attending Anant Ambani’s pre-wedding function in Jamnagar, indicating his off-field engagements. As cricket enthusiasts eagerly anticipate Dhoni’s return to the CSK squad, his ‘new role’ declaration adds an extra layer of intrigue, promising an exciting season for both the team and its ardent supporters.
