Chennai: Legendary wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni is expected to make his highly anticipated season debut for the Chennai Super Kings in their high-profile IPL 2026 clash against rival Mumbai Indians this Thursday.

The season is going from bad to worse for Chennai with no hope of an MS Dhoni comeback in sight. When the season started, it was informed that Dhoni would be out for a fortnight, now it is way beyond that and there is no confirmation or statement of any kind from the CSK camp.

Delhi Capitals batter KL Rahul is on the verge of becoming the sixth-highest run-scorer in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The Karnataka star has a golden chance to surpass MS Dhoni on this prestigious list when he steps onto the field against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Tuesday.
