Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni`s left knee injury has raised doubts over his participation in the IPL opener against Gujarat Titans here on Friday, but the team CEO ruled out such a possibility. The 41-year-old former India skipper has apparently sustained a niggle on his left knee during a training session in Chennai and didn`t bat at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Motera during CSK`s nets on Thursday.
When CSK CEO Kasi Viswanthan was asked, he told PTI, "As far as I am concerned, the skipper is 100 percent playing. I don`t know about any other development." In case Dhoni doesn`t play, CSK then might ask one among Devon Conway or Ambati Rayudu to keep wickets, as they don`t have any specialised stumper in their ranks. Dhoni does a lot of pre-season training, but in order to conserve energy, he normally doesn`t train a lot when the tournament starts.
