In the meantime, the Chief Executive Officer of CSK, Kasi Viswanathan, stated unequivocally that Dhoni will be participating in the first game of the season.
“As far as I am concerned, the skipper is 100 percent playing. I don’t know about any other development,” he told PTI.
In the event that Dhoni is unable to participate in the match, the CSK could ask either Devon Conway or Ambati Rayudu to keep wickets for them because they do not have a specialist stumper among their players.
During the training session, the great captain was also spotted chatting with the Gujarat Titans instructor and former India head coach Gary Kirsten. Kirsten is currently the head coach of the Gujarat Titans. After a significant amount of time had passed, the supporters were overjoyed to see the players who had been instrumental in India’s historic performance at the ODI World Cup in 2011.
