Mahendra Singh Dhoni is set to miss the initial two weeks of the Indian Premier League (IPL) season as per the Chennai Super Kings' latest statement. This comes after Dhoni, the celebrated wicketkeeper-batter, led Chennai to five championship victories before stepping down from captaincy in 2024.
The 44-year-old concluded last season with 196 runs in 14 matches, with Chennai ending at the bottom of the table. The team revealed Dhoni's absence is due to ongoing rehabilitation for a calf strain as they prep for their first match against the Rajasthan Royals.
With the IPL commencing on Saturday and lasting until May 31, Chennai's anticipation is palpable as they aim to reclaim their former glory, with Dhoni's recovery timeline closely watched.
