MS Dhoni has not travelled to Delhi for Chennai Super Kings’ next match against the Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League 2026. The five-time champions’ bowling coach Eric Simmons told the media on Monday that the talismanic former captain hasn’t travelled to the national capital for the game that will be played on Tuesday, thus possibly making it the 10th match that Dhoni has missed this season.
CSK are currently placed sixth on the league table, having picked themselves up after a rather disastrous start in which they suffered with three back-to-back defeats. CSK had revealed ahead of their season opener that Dhoni had been ruled out for the first two weeks with a calf injury. Since then, the 44-year-old underwent a fitness test, cleared it and joined the team to the away trips to Hyderabad and Mumbai. However, despite travelling with the team and practicing regularly, Dhoni has stayed away from the dugout on match days.
