IPL 2026: MS Dhoni ‘keen’ But Another Calf Setback Delays Comeback, Informs Fleming
Indian Premier League: Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming has indicated that MS Dhoni’s return to the playing XI for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 has been further delayed after the veteran wicketkeeper-batter suffered another setback in his recovery from a calf injury.
Dhoni, who was initially expected to miss only the opening two weeks of IPL 2026, has now been sidelined for nearly a month, with CSK already eight matches into their campaign without their talismanic former captain featuring even once.
Providing an update after Chennai’s defeat to the Gujarat Titans on Sunday, Fleming revealed that the 42-year-old aggravated the injury during a practice outing, complicating what was initially thought to be a short-term issue.
