Whatever the performance of Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2023 has shown so far, one thing that is constantly troubling them is injury. This team with a yellow jersey is constantly troubled by the injury of its players. And, now MS Dhoni's name has also been included in that list of injured players of CSK. According to team coach Stephen Fleming, Dhoni's knee is injured.
Chennai Super Kings coach Stephen Fleming gave big information about MS Dhoni's injury after the match with Rajasthan Royals. He told that Dhoni is currently troubled by his injured knees. Because of that, he was also finding it difficult to run between the wickets in the match against Rajasthan. Well, this match got over but Dhoni's injury has increased CSK's problems for the future.
'Injured' Dhoni played against Rajasthan Royals
It is clear from the words of coach Stephen Fleming that the whole world saw the injured Dhoni playing on the field against Rajasthan. Dhoni was hitting big shots in the match played on 12th April. But, when it came to running between the wickets, he was facing problems.
Former Australian cricketer Matthew Hayden has also pointed out Dhoni's difficulty in running during the match. Seeing Dhoni's running between wickets, he said that he is not seeing Dhoni who is usually there.
Will Dhoni play further in IPL 2023 or not?
However, now that Stephen Fleming has confirmed the injury, there is an uproar in Chennai Super Kings. Questions are being raised about whether Dhoni will play the next match or not. The concern is more because players like Ben Stokes, Deepak Chahar and Sisanda Magla have already been ruled out due to injury.
