As per the latest reports, CSK legend - MS Dhoni might lead the team in next game against the Delhi Capitals. As quoted by Indian Express - “Ruturaj Gaikwad’s participation in tomorrow’s game will depend on how well he recovered. He is still sore and we would take a call as to how he bats in the nets today. If he doesn’t play, not sure who will lead. But there is a strong chance that a young wicketkeeper might fill in,” said Hussey during a pre-match press conference. 

MS Dhoni Stepped Down From the Captaincy Role After IPL 2023

MS Dhoni was last seen leading the five time IPL Champions for the last time during IPL 2023. In that tournament, Dhoni was seen leading the team to the title win. CSK defeated the Hardik Pandya-led side GT in the final of the tournament. So it will be nearly after two years that the CSK fans will see MS Dhoni leading the team again.

What Is Ruturaj Gaikwad's Injury?

In the last match against the Rajasthan Royals, Ruturaj Gaikwad played a brilliant knock to score a half-century. But during that innings, he got hurt by Tushar Deshpande's vicious bouncer and that is probably the reason that the CSK captain might not play the next game. However, everything are still reports and nothing has yet been confirmed by the franchise.
