Watch: CSK Star Touches MS Dhoni's Feet Before Starting IPL 2024 Campaign, Thala Does This

MS Dhoni has been an inspirational figure for CSK since the time IPL started in 2008. It would not be wrong to say that the two are synonymous. Under MS Dhoni, CSK has been the most consistent side in the history of the IPL. Not for thing is he called the favourite son of Chennai. Under him, CSK won a record-equalling fifth IPL in 2023. He relinquished his captaincy ahead of the 2024 season and now Ruturaj Gaikwad is leading the side. MS Dhoni still gets the loudest cheer whenever his face appears on the TV screen.

During the six matches that he played in the limited-overs format, Hasaranga claimed eight wickets, with six coming in the ODI series and two in the T20I. ESPNcricinfo revealed that Hasaranga was assessed by Sri Lanka Cricket's medical staff and they suspect that the pain is down to the musculo-skeletal apparatus in his left heel having become worn.
