Ahead of the highly anticipated and do-or-die clash between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bengalurua video surfaced on CSK’s social media handle, showcasing MS Dhoni bowling during the practice session.
The footage captured the legendary wicketkeeper-batsman bowling during the team’s net session.
Is he going to enthrall fans with his bowling skills against RCB on Saturday?
“When he bowls, just ADORABOWL!,” CSK posted on their social media handle.
CSK batting coach Michael Hussey is hoping that Dhoni would continue with the team for a couple of years more, saying the former skipper was still batting well.
The 42-year-old Dhoni surprised everyone by stepping aside as captain of the team just a day before the start of the 2024 season. Ruturaj Gaikwad was handed the reins of the side.
“We are hoping he does keep going. He is still batting so well. He does prepare well – he gets into the camp very early and hits a lot of balls. He has been in good touch all season really,” Hussey said on ESPN’s Around the Wicket show.
“I guess we just got to try to manage him from the body side of things. He had a knee surgery after the last season. So, he has been managing that from the initial stage of the tournament.
“I hope he keeps going for another couple of years. But we will just have to wait and see. He is the only one who will make that call. And, he likes to sort of build the drama a little bit as well. So, I wouldn’t expect a decision anytime soon.”
Dhoni led CSK to record five IPL titles.
