New Delhi. IPL 2023 has started from today. Many teams are going to clash together in the field. Today the first match will be between the champions Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings. IPL 2023 will start with the match of both the teams at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad but even before the start of the match, difficulties may increase for the team of Chennai Super Kings, Because team captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is injured. Suspense is still intact about his match playing. Now the statement of CSK Chief Executive Officer Kashi Vishwanathan has come to the fore in the matter. So let’s know what he has said.
CSK CEO gave statement
Mahendra Singh Dhoni suffered a knee injury during practice in Chennai, after which he was seen avoiding batting in the practice session on Thursday as well. It was being said that Dhoni could not play the match due to injury, but the CEO of CSK has cleared the situation on the matter. He has said in a statement to the media that as far as I know, Mahendra Singh Dhoni is playing 100 percent. Apart from this, I have no information yet. If Dhoni is not playing due to injury, then the responsibility of wicketkeeping is given to Devon Conway or Ambati Rayudu and this has not happened so far. And the second is that the franchise does not have a wicketkeeper of Dhoni’s level.
Try to heal the injury as soon as possible
It is generally seen that MS Dhoni works hard in pre-season training but in the time before the start of the match, he keeps himself relaxed so that he can save energy. Anyway, Dhoni does not want to increase his injury, so he was seen avoiding batting in the practice session. If the injury increases even a little, then it will be a loss deal for the team.
