The Chennai Super Kings and their injury woes have increased. MS Dhoni, their captain, their leader, their legend has also injured himself in the game against the Rajasthan Royals. This adds another name to the big list of injured players that CSK already has. The list includes big names like Kyle Jamieson, Deepak Chahar, and Ben Stokes.



With MS Dhoni injured, there are many questions that need to be answered. Who will captain CSK if Dhoni misses out? How severe is his injury? Stephen Fleming dropped this bombshell during the post-match press conference. Here is an in-depth look:



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">MS Dhoni is Nursing a Knee Injury, Says Stephen Fleming:</h2>

However he was seen limping. | Image: Twitter</figcaption></figure>



MS Dhoni had one of the best games of his career last night. Though he was not able to finish the game for his team, he looked in sublime touch. The Chennai Super Kings required 21 runs in the last over and MS Dhoni hit two sixes to bring the game back in favor of CSK. But Sandeep Sharma held his nerves and executed the last two yorkers very well to beat the Super Kings by 3 runs. During the match, MS was limping and finding running difficult. His injury was visible.



When enquired about it in the post-match conference, here is what coach Stephen Fleming had to say, ?He is nursing a knee injury which you can see in some of his movements. It?s hindering him somewhat. His fitness has always been very professional. He comes a month before the tournament starts. He?s a great player. We never have doubts about him. He?s just amazing.?



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">?Sisanda Magala has Injured his Fingers?, says Fleming:</h2>



Stephen Fleming was also enquired why Sisanda Magala was not given his final two overs to bowl. In response, he dropped another bombshell revealing that Magala had injured his finger and had got a split webbing. He said, ?Magala?s hand was split, unfortunately, so he was unable to bowl those last two overs. The same happened to Deepak Chahar in the last game so we are operating on pretty thin resources. But I think we are not the only team to have that.?



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">CSK Injury Woes Increase:</h2>

The Chennai Super Kings might suffer if MS Dhoni misses out. Here is a look at their long list of injured players:



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Player Name</td><td>Injury</td><td>Updates</td></tr><tr><td>MS Dhoni</td><td>Knee Injury &nbsp;</td><td>Monitored daily.</td></tr><tr><td>Ben Stokes</td><td>Knee and Toe Injuries</td><td>Monitored on a daily basis.</td></tr><tr><td>Kyle Jamieson</td><td>Back Injury</td><td>Ruled Out of the tournament.</td></tr><tr><td>Sisanda Magala</td><td>Split Webbing</td><td>Out for at least two weeks.</td></tr><tr><td>Mukesh Chaudhary</td><td>Back Injury</td><td>Ruled Out of the tournament.</td></tr><tr><td>Deepak Chahar</td><td>Left Leg Hamstring</td><td>Out for two to three weeks at least.</td></tr><tr><td>Simarjeet Singh</td><td>Unspecified</td><td>Out for a week more.</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



The big blow for the Chennai Super Kings came in the game against the Mumbai Indians. Their strike bowler Deepak Chahar has been ruled out yet again due to a hamstring injury. He is an injury-prone player but this recurring injury has put the NCA rehabilitation process under the scanner. Mukesh Chaudhary another domestic Indian pacer was again ruled out from the entire tournament with a back injury. He missed out on a significant part of the domestic season as well.

Chennai Super Kings will be looking for Indian pacers as Simarjeet Singh, their retention has also been ruled out due to an unspecified injury for at least a month. They will now have to rely on the services of Tushar Deshpande and Aakash Singh, the left armer. Ben Stokes who has injured his toe, is monitored daily. Once he comes on, he can play the double role and fill the voids.

MS Dhoni Injured: CSK Injury List Increases as Captain Injures Knee. IPL 2023.

ms-dhoni-injured-csk-injury-list-increases-as-captain-injures-knee-in-csk-vs-rr-ipl-2023

IPL 2024: Chennai Super Kings former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has batted majorly in the final two overs for the franchise in the current edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Even on Sunday, when the Yellow Army lost their sixth wicket for 122 runs in the 16th over of their inning against the Punjab Kings, fans expected Dhoni to come out to bat but instead of MS, Shardul Thakur walked to the crease. Dhoni, on the other hand, decided to hold himself back and stayed in the dugout.



The decision to let Shardul bat ahead of Dhoni surprised the Cricket experts. Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan felt that MSD wasn't helping CSK by batting at number nine. Former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh even went on to suggest that the five-time IPL winners should make an extra batter play if Dhoni continues to bat in the lower order.



According to a news report in Times of India, Dhoni coming out to bat in the final overs of CSK's batting inning is not any strategy but a compulsion for the former Chennai skipper. The Chennai-based franchise officials have revealed that the 42-year-old is playing with a muscle tear in his leg which is not allowing him to run for a long time.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/05/dhoni.jpg" alt="IPL Points Table (Updated) On 5 May, CSK Dominates PBKS at Dharamshala" class="wp-image-133780" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">MS Dhoni (BCCI)</figcaption></figure>



The muscle tear in his leg reportedly occurred during the initial stages of IPL 2024 and with CSK?s Devon Conway ruled out of the current edition of the T20 league due to an injury he suffered against Australia, the Super Kings management have decided to let MS Dhoni play with the muscle tear. Due to this, the 42-year-old has been taking a lot of medications, playing through a considerable amount of pain and has been asked to not run a lot between the wickets.



This is the second consecutive season where Dhoni has continued to play in the IPL despite suffering an injury. In the previous edition of the Indian Premier League, he suffered a knee injury that required surgery during the off-season. While he has recovered completely from the knee injury, the muscle tear is a bothering one and it's hurting his ability to run between the wickets.

India keeper-batter Sanju Samson might be a surprise inclusion in the Indian team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. As per the reports in India Today, it is learned that the right-hander is likely to be there as the backup keeper for Rishabh Pant in the team. 
The reports stated that Sanju Samson's inclusion in the Indian team will depend on how the BCCI treats Gautam Gambhir. It is learned that if the head coach has the same say in the selection matters that he had during the Australia tour, then the keeper-batter might be included in the Indian team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
The India squad for the Australia tour was mostly picked on the recommendation of Gautam Gambhir. The head coach played a huge role in the selection of Harshit Rana and Nitish Kumar Reddy. But the team failing badly there didn't go any good to the head coach. 
Some reports claimed that head coach Gautam Gambhir won't be having a say in selection matters. However, if that isn't the case, then the reports in India Today say that the head coach's favourite, Sanju Samson, will be picked for the team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
 Rishabh Pant will be the first-choice keeper in the team, and Sanju Samson will be serving as backup.
It is learned that Rishabh Pant will be the first-choice keeper in the team, and Sanju Samson will be serving as backup. This will be a massive step for the Indian team going forward, as Samson has been in hot form in white-ball cricket, especially in T20 cricket. 
Sanju Samson has made a staggering return to the Indian T20I setup as he slammed three centuries in the two series that were played. The keeper-batter also has a great record in the ODIs as well as he has an average of over 56 in his short career and would want to cash on that as well. 
ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to begin from 19th February. The Indian team for the tournament is all set to be announced soon, and it is learned that Rohit Sharma will be leading the team, which will see some of the expected names.

India keeper-batter Sanju Samson might be a surprise inclusion in the Indian team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Sanju Samson to get nod ahead in Indian squad? Massive report comes on Gautam Gambhir's 'favourite'

Chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar is all set to meet captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir along with the BCCI officials to do the post martom of of the team's poor outing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The India team faced a 3-1 thrashing at the hands of Australia in a five-match series. 
Ajit Agarkar will be meeting Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir on Sunday, the same day when the BCCI will be appointing Devajit Saikia as the new BCCI secretary. While this is one development, other claims the captain Rohit and Gambhir will be at the receiving end of some harsh questions by the BCCI.
The reports claimed that there will be informal and formal meetings among selectors and all the issues will be addressed. This will also include India's poor performances in the Tests last year. India faced a 3-0 whitewash at home against New Zealand and then suffered a loss to Australia. 
Another issue that will be addressed by the BCCI will be the poor form of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Both the stalwarts of the Indian team failed badly in the entire Test season, and hence, discussions related to their future will be taking place as well among the board members and head coach. 
<h2>Ravichandran Ashwin's announcement of retirement during mid-tour will also be discussed - Reports</h2>
It is also learned that Ravichandran Ashwin's announcement of retirement during mid-tour will also be discussed, along with the rumours of things not good in the dressing room will be addressed as well. The source close to the developments told Hindustan Times: 
"The Australian tour, which immediately followed the 0-3 rout at home to New Zealand, was expected to decide the fate of many senior players. The 3-1 loss shut the door on India’s WTC final hopes, which is seen as a big setback. 
" Off-spinner R Ashwin’s mid-tour retirement and return home, murmurs of team discontent on tour, Rohit’s free fall in form that resulted in his sitting out the final Test at Sydney and the prolonged lean run of Virat Kohli has left Indian cricket faced with several searching questions. 
"All these are likely to be addressed in a number of formal and informal meetings among selectors and the administrators in the coming days." 
It remains to be seen what conclusion will come out once the BCCI officials meet. The next Test match of India will be played in June when the team will tour England.

In what has been the latest development as per the reports in India Today, it is learned that there is no certainty over the place of KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The Indian squad for the tournament is all set to be announced next week. 
The reports claimed that KL Rahul might not make it into the Indian squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because his batting has been under the radar, especially after the poor innings that he played in the final of the ICC World Cup 2023 against Australia, which the Indian team lost. 
KL Rahul was recently dropped from the Indian ODI XI during the series against Sri Lanka. As per the reports, it is learned that Rishabh Pant will be the first-choice keeper-batter in the team, while Sanju Samson might get the nod as the second keeper in the team. 
<h2>Ravindra Jadeja hasn't impressed the BCCI selectors with his efforts with the bat and ball in the white-ball cricket. </h2>
On the other hand, Ravindra Jadeja hasn't impressed the BCCI selectors with his efforts with the bat and ball in the white-ball cricket. Those in charge feel that Axar Patel is much more effective than Jadeja as the latter's batting hasn't been good since the last few times. 
Coming to Mohammed Shami, there is no clarity over the fitness of a fast bowler as of yet. However, if unfit, he won't be rushed into the team. He bowled 16 overs in the two games that be played in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25 and if he is deemed fit, he might be there. 
Shami has been out of action for a while. If the fast bowler achieves full fitness and will be there for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. He played a huge role for the team in the ICC World Cup 2023 and would want to continue the same form in the upcoming tournament as well.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami likely to be dropped from India squad

Team India have had a hard time in the last few months. Especially in test cricket, where they were clear swept for the first time at home and then went on to lose the Border-Gavaskar Trophy as well. The poor form of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli was also one of the reasons behind India's poor show.
This has raised questions over the test futures for both Virat and Rohit. Though India don't have any red-ball games until June, that is why a number of former cricketers and cricket pundits have asked these two Indian stalwarts to go and participate in the domestic circuit to get back to their best form.
Former Indian head coach Ravi Shastri, who was part of India's BGT trophy win in 2018 and 2021, urged these stars to participate in domestic cricket to regain their form. Irfan Pathan and Sunil Gavaskar also shared their opinions and asked every Indian international star to feature in domestic cricket.
Indian head coach Gautam Gambhir also made a statement during the Sydney press conference about the importance of domestic cricket. Does playing at the domestic level help to regain form? But have you ever thought about when was the last time Rohit or Virat played in domestic cricket?
<h2>When was the last time Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma played domestic cricket?</h2>
Virat Kohli played ten tests in 2024 and scored 417 runs at an average of 24.52, which is half of his career average. His first test of 2025 saw him scoring 17 and 6 in two innings at the SCG. So, Virat is clearly struggling to manage the requirements of test cricket. But do you know it has been over a decade since he has played a domestic game?
The last domestic match for Virat Kohli was back in 2012 for his state team, Delhi. He played a Ranji Trophy match against Uttar Pradesh in Ghaziabad and scored 14 and 43 across two innings of that game. This was the end of his domestic red-ball career. Since then, he has not returned to Delhi again at the FC level.
If we look at Rohit Sharma, it has been over nine years now. The Test captain featured in his last domestic game back in 2016. It was during a Duleep Trophy match when he played for India Blue. He used to bat in the middle order back then and batted at No. 4 and 3 in two innings, scoring 30 and 32, respectively.
It has been a long time since these two batted at the domestic level. Though playing at the domestic level won't guarantee you gaining the form back, it can certainly help when you spend more time on the crease. Will we see Virat and Rohit playing domestic cricket? It is something that totally depends on both of them.

Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are struggling with their form. Hence, many former cricketers have advised them to play domestic cricket.
