Chennai Super Kings batting coach Michael Hussey revealed when MS Dhoni will be seen in action in IPL 2026. "He’s progressing really well. I know he’s pushing hard to return as soon as possible, and the fans are eager to see MS Dhoni back on the field. We’re hopeful it could be in the next few games, but he needs to be close to 100% to give his best. He’s been batting well in the nets and looks in good touch, now it’s also about being able to run hard between the wickets," Hussey said about Dhoni.

MS Dhoni doesn't want to play as 'Impact Player' for Chennai Super Kings. "I’m quite sure he’ll be back behind the stumps. The main concern is the calf injury, it’s about the running, especially late in the innings when he may need to push hard for ones and twos. He just needs to ensure the calf is strong enough to handle that workload. From a skill perspective, we know exactly what MS Dhoni can do as a wicketkeeper, and he’s batting really well. It’s now about regaining full confidence in that calf," Michael Hussey said about Dhoni.
