Dhoni and Raina to start IPL 13 preparations from March 3

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper M.S. Dhoni will start his preparations for the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) from March 3 in Chennai along with Suresh Raina.

Speaking to IANS, CSK CEO K.S. Viswanathan said: “Dhoni will reach Chennai on March 2 and will start training the next day at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. Raina will also be training with him, but there will be no international player as of now.”

The 2020 IPL will see the return of Dhoni to cricketing action as the wicket-keeper is on a break since playing in the semi-final of the 2019 World Cup where India lost to New Zealand.

IPL will be an important event as far as India’s preparation for the T20 World Cup is concerned. For Dhoni, in particular, the tournament will be a platform to see whether he still has that zeal in him to represent Team India at the international level.
