MS Dhoni is currently leading the five-time champions and the most successful franchise in IPL, but this season has been extremely disappointing. The Chennai Super Kings has been struggling to find their groove back and another shock came when MS Dhoni missed two practice sessions ahead of the match against Kolkata Knight Riders. The constant absence has sparked speculation about his participation in the match and around his fitness. But CSK’s bowling coach Eric Simons has put all the worries to rest and given an update about Dhoni’s fitness.
If MS Dhoni plays this match then it is likely to be his final appearance at the iconic venue as CSK doesn’t have any other match scheduled there which adds even more emotional weightage to the fixture. CSK is already out of the playoffs race and with MS Dhoni retirement speculations after IPL 2025, fans will be waiting to get a glimpse of him in all the matches that are further left.
Will MS Dhoni Play KKR Vs CSK Match?
“Yes, he’s expected to play tomorrow,” Simons said on the eve of the match.
“With regards to MS, he knows his situation very well. He knows where he is. In terms of his preparations, he always works very hard at the beginning of a tournament and then allows himself to taper off because he gets himself in a space where he’s ready. So no issues, he just knows when he is prepared and when he’s not.”
