MS Dhoni

Lucknow: Chennai Super Kings take on Lucknow Super Giants on Thursday at the Ekana Stadium. The Super Kings would look to ride on the winning momentum when they take on LSG. But, the question is – will MS Dhoni play? There was a video which went viral that shows Dhoni taking the help of Suresh Raina while walking. It is no secret that Dhoni has been troubled with a knee injury since last year. Fans would be hoping that doesn’t stop him from playing tonight’s game, but certainly – there are doubts over his participation. Will the Super Kings risk Dhoni knowing that he would be mighty important in the later half of the league?

Chennai and Lucknow have faced each other in 3 matches in IPL. Of these 3 games, Chennai have won 1 whereas Lucknow have come out victorious on 1 occasion. 1 match ended without a result. Talking about Friday’s match against LSG, Fleming regarded Lucknow as a high-quality team.

In six matches this season, Dhoni has amassed 56 runs at a staggering strike-rate of 236. Interesting to see he plays tonight or not. Without a doubt, fans would want to see him play.
