This season has not been well passed yet for five -time IPL champions Chennai Super Kings. Chennai has suffered defeat in 2 of the first 3 matches under the captaincy of Rituraj Gaikwad. Since winning the first match, the team had to face 2 consecutive defeats. In such a situation, it is necessary for the team to return. But there may be a change in the leadership of the team before the next match. MS Dhoni can once again become the captain of Chennai Super Kings for the next match. Yes, this may happen but the reason for this is not the defeat of the team but the injury of captain Rituraj Gaikwad.
MS Dhoni, who left Chennai captaincy last year, may be seen taking command of the team again after 17 matches. On Saturday 5 April, Chennai Super Kings will face Delhi Capitals. The match will be played at its home ground Chepock Stadium in Chennai. Before this match to be held in the afternoon, Chennai Super Kings are struggling with the fitness of their regular captain Rituraj Gaikwad. However, it is believed that Gaikwad is difficult to play in this match.
A day before the match, Chennai's batting coach Michael Hussey indicated this. While updating on the injury of Rituraj Gaikwad at the press conference, Hussey said that his playing would depend on how quickly and well he recovers from the injury. Hussey said, "There is still swelling in the elbow of Gaikwad and he will bat in the practice session on Friday evening, after which the decision will be taken." Instead of taking a direct name of Dhoni, Hussey said in a funny gestures that a young wicketkeeper can lead the team in Gaikwad's absence.
