Win Projections to be updated soon
The captain of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), MS Dhoni, is getting ready to return to the practice field in anticipation of the 2024 Indian Premier League. This is a much-awaited development. Notably, the 42-year-old cricket virtuoso, who guided the Super Kings to an incredible sixth IPL championship the previous season, suffered a little setback with a left knee ailment and had surgery after the competition.
In the same spirit, the franchise’s CEO, K.S. Viswanathan, revealed Dhoni’s present level of fitness, stating that the captain of CSK was in good form and had been receiving gym rehabilitation. In addition, he anticipates that during the next ten days, Dhoni will begin net practice. For the devoted “Thala” fans who have been waiting to witness the legend in action once more, this is fantastic news.
He’s doing great right now. He’s working out in the gym and has begun his rehabilitation. And he’ll probably start working in the nets in ten more days as well,” Sportstar cited Viswanathan as saying.
By the first week of March, the Super Kings are preparing a training camp in Chennai, where the Indian Premier League season is scheduled to begin on March 22. The excitement around MS Dhoni comeback is growing, particularly in light of his excellent performance and leadership in the last campaign.
“We are planning for a camp in Chennai by the first week of March, with the season set to start around March 22,” the CEO said at the Junior Super Kings inter-school competition announcement on Saturday.

In addition, the CSK franchise’s executive leadership also discussed how the Chennai think tank fared in the just-finished IPL 2024 auction. The Super Kings strengthened their roster for the title defense by acquiring six new players in the player auction. Viswanathan conveyed his satisfaction with their overall selections as well as the top player they had desired for their squad.
“We achieved almost all of our goals. Planning was underway for Daryl Mitchell. With the large side boundaries at our Chepauk pitch, we felt Mustafizur Rahman would be a solid bet. Though we weren’t sure if we would be able to obtain them, these were our ideas. Fortunately, we had a successful auction this time around,” he continued.
Additionally, Kasi Vishwanathan provided an explanation for the choice to spend an astounding Rs 8.4 crore on Sameer Rizvi, an uncapped batter.
A number of the teams have their eyes on Sameer Rizvi. We were undoubtedly fortunate to have him. As you can see, our goal was to find someone to take Ambati Rayudu’s spot. We claimed that we lacked the necessary players with that level of experience to place a bid on any of them. Thus, we decided it would be wiser to pursue a young person who shows potential,” the CEO of CSK said.
We selected him, but that doesn’t mean I have to claim he’s the next best. However, there is a chance for it. We had Rajvardhan Hangargekar, Nishant Sindhu, and Shaik Rasheed last year. In light of this, we are also working to develop the squad for the future, which will benefit us in the long term,” Vishwanathan said, highlighting the Super Kings’ emphasis on developing youth.
