After a few lackluster performances, the legendary MS Dhoni is all geared up to showcase his masterclass in the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Despite being on the last leg of his career, the iconic batsman-cum-captain is not one to be underestimated.
Here’s why the CSK fans can expect a stellar show from MSD in IPL 2023:
1) The last hurrah for the Captain Cool
Rumor has it that this could be the final season for MS Dhoni in the IPL. The mere thought of it has lit a fire under him, igniting an extra dose of motivation to go out with a bang. With the practice sessions in full swing, Dhoni is raring to lead his team to victory and put his stamp on the competition once again.

2) Home ground advantage at Chepauk
The Chennai Super Kings will finally return to their home ground at Chepauk after a hiatus of three years, and it’s safe to say that the fans are ecstatic. MSD, in particular, thrives on this pitch, which favors the spinners and suits his style of play. With a record of 1,362 runs in 48 innings at an average of 44 and a strike rate of 143, it’s evident that the maestro is in his element here. The home support is set to add to the already impressive numbers, fueling Dhoni and his team to give their best.
3) Ben Stokes as the X-factor
The addition of Ben Stokes to the CSK squad is a game-changer. The all-rounder brings a wealth of experience and versatility to the team, making him the perfect fit for their requirements. His ability to bat at any position in the top 7, coupled with his expertise in pressure situations, is precisely what the Super Kings were missing in the last season. With Stokes in the line-up, the batting order becomes stronger, providing ample support to Dhoni to lead the charge.
