The Indian T20 League 2023 will start on March 31. The first fixture will take place between Gujarat and Chennai. Some time back, Chennai skipper Dhoni arrived in the city. He was received amidst huge fanfare. In all probability, this will be Dhoni’s last Indian T20 League season. The Chennai captain has led the franchise to four Indian T20 League titles. He has been associated with Chennai since 2008.
Dhoni has been training in Chennai for some time now and an image of his biceps has taken the internet by storm. The biceps are looking very strong. They are in good shape and well-chiselled. The biceps look like those of a wrestler. The fans have gone crazy over his picture and have lauded the former India captain for his fitness.
Chennai under MS Dhoni’s leadership have made it to the Indian T20 League playoffs eight times
Captain Cool has ensured that Chennai have made it to the playoffs of the Indian T20 League eight times. This talks about the consistency of the franchise. Dhoni has treated Chennai like a close-knit family. It has been written in various interviews that Dhoni has an open-door policy in his room. Anyone can have a chat at any time. This is a wonderful trait to have as a skipper. The Chennai skipper has come out in pressure situations many times to bail his side out.
One instance that comes to mind is in 2010 when he played a blinder of an innings. He made 54 off 29 balls with five fours and two sixes in Chennai’s last league game. This innings helped Chennaiin a must-win game against Punjab. They made their way to the finals and beat Mumbai at the DY Patil Stadium to win their first Indian T20 League title that year. Dhoni has become one of Chennai’s favourite sons.
Dhoni scored 4978 runs from 2343 matches in the Indian T20 League. He has an average of 39.2 and a strike rate of 135.2 Dhoni has made 24 fifties in the Indian T20 League. The right-hander is affectionately called ‘Thala’ which means the head in Chennai. Chennai will be aiming to give a grand send-off to Dhoni by winning an Indian T20 League title.
