The Super Kings recently released an official statement confirming that Dhoni will miss the first two weeks of the tournament. He is expected to be unavailable for the first three or four matches. The Ruturaj Gaikwad-led side will begin their campaign against the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Guwahati on Monday.
“As far as I’m concerned, and as far as Dhoni is concerned, I think as a human being and as a cricketer who has done so much for CSK, the Chennai team and the cricket-loving public of Chennai will always back a player who has contributed so much. That is one of the reasons why Dhoni is so popular there.”

It Is My Wish and the Franchise’s Wish That MS Dhoni - Kasi Viswanathan
Kasi Viswanathan said that MS Dhoni is popular worldwide but enjoys unmatched support in Chennai and Tamil Nadu. He added that the franchise wants Dhoni to stay connected with CSK in the future, while any decision about his role will be taken by N. Srinivasan when Dhoni retires.
“We have not spoken to him about this yet. Mr. Srinivasan is the only person who can speak to him on that, and I think he will do it in the coming year whenever Dhoni decides to hang up his boots.”
MS Dhoni's Focus and Commitment to Cricket Have Never Changed - Kasi Viswanathan
“His focus and commitment to cricket have never changed, from the day I saw him in 2007 until now. Even today, before the season starts, he arrives in Chennai a month early and practices with the same intensity as he did in his prime. That has always been his approach. His commitment and loyalty can never be questioned."
Dhoni is the most capped player in IPL history with 278 appearances. In 2025, he scored 196 runs across 13 innings at a strike rate of 135.17. He led the side after regular skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad suffered a season-ending elbow injury. However, CSK finished at the bottom of the table.
