If you are a fan of Chennai Super Kings then there is a latest update for you. Chennai Super Kings and MS Dhoni have started preparations for IPL 2026. Currently, a training video of Dhoni is going viral on social media, in which it can be seen that he is seen training in the nets with captain Ruturaj Gaikwad at CSK’s High-Performance Centre.
Dhoni’s trademark elegance and sharpness was visible in the batting session. He started with an accurate off-side drive. After that also hit solid backfoot pull shots. At the same time, in this video, Ruturaj Gaikwad can also be seen batting where he was seen hitting fours and sixes. You can watch the video of this training session below.
Last year, Dhoni played all the 14 matches of CSK, but this season, Sanju Samson has also entered the team, so it will be interesting to see at which number Dhoni bats in this season and with which playing eleven he comes on the field. Dhoni also captained the team in the second half of the season but after the return of Ruturaj Gaikwad this season, he will not be seen in the role of captain.
In such a situation, it will be interesting to see whether 44-year-old Dhoni plays all the matches for CSK this season or not. Let us tell you that Dhoni has worked very hard to play this season. According to reports, Dhoni followed a disciplined daily training routine at the Jharkhand State Cricket Association (JSCA) stadium in Ranchi. Starting his sessions around 1:30 PM each day, he completed five-hour training blocks specifically designed to build stamina for the demands of the hot Indian summer.
