Chennai Super Kings will take on Mumbai Indians in this El Clasico fixture in Mumbai on Thursday, April 23. The Chennai-based franchise is currently in eighth position on the 10-team points table. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and his team have two victories and four defeats heading into this away encounter.
After the wicketkeeping session, MS Dhoni padded up for an hour-long batting practice. He struck the ball fluently, facing fast bowlers Matt Henry and Jamie Overton, followed by throwdowns, raising hopes of an early return to match action.

CSK Hit By Injury Setbacks As Khaleel Ahmed, Ayush Mhatre Ruled Out
Chennai Super Kings are dealing with a major injury setback during IPL 2026. Fast bowler Khaleel Ahmed and young batter Ayush Mhatre have been ruled out, and the team has not yet announced replacements. Mhatre suffered a hamstring injury and will need 6 to 12 weeks to recover.
Australian pacer Spencer Johnson has joined the squad in Mumbai. He was signed as a replacement for Nathan Ellis and trained with the team at the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday. Johnson is expected to play soon and is likely to replace Khaleel Ahmed in the playing XI.
Will Jacks Joins the Mumbai Indians After Missing the Initial Matches
Will Jacks recently enjoyed an impressive T20 World Cup campaign for England, winning four Player of the Match awards. His presence could force the management to leave out one of the overseas spinners, either Allah Ghazanfar or Mitchell Santner, to accommodate his all-round abilities.
