"It's A Luxury": MS Dhoni's Clear Verdict On 'Impact Player' Rule In IPL 2023

The Impact Player Rule will make its debut in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 and both MS Dhoni and Hardik Pandya gave their honest verdicts on the innovation in T20 cricket. The new rule means that the ‘Impact Player' will be able to do everything from the time he takes the pitch, and the rule book states that "Impact Player can only be an Indian player unless the franchise has fewer than four overseas players in the Playing XI." While Pandya did not reveal much about his feelings about the new rule, Dhoni came up with an interesting observation about how it can impact the shortest format of cricket.

IPL 2023, Chennai Super Kings Predicted XI vs Gujarat Titans: Will MS Dhoni Be Available For Opener?

Chennai Super Kings will try to wipe away the demons of the last IPL season with the 2023 edition that kicks off with their match against defending champions Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on March 31. A lot of drama took place last year in the CSK camp as MS Dhoni passed the captaincy baton to Ravindra Jadeja ahead of the season. Midway through IPL 2022, Jadeja relinquished the post only to see Dhoni coming back in the role. The captaincy fiasco added by poor performance of the team saw the four-time champions finish at the second-last spot in the table with only 4 wins from 14 matches.

Injured MS Dhoni Skips Training Ahead Of IPL Opener, CSK CEO's Big Update On His Availability

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 Viswanathan 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.

The never-ending speculations about Mahendra Singh Dhoni's impending 'last dance', Virat Kohli's endless pursuit of an elusive silverware and Rohit Sharma's customary nonchalance are things that make the IPL starting Friday a heady cocktail of cricket and entertainment. Megastars Dhoni, Kohli and Rohit have been the IPL's driving force in the past 15 seasons, getting the cricket crazy Indian fans hooked on the event for nearly two months every year. As it enters the 16th season, innovations introduced in the form of potential game changer like the 'Impact Player' rule, DRS on wides and waist-high no balls, and two broadcasting giants locked in an ugly war of 'TV vs Digital' act as ingredients garnishing the mouth-watering dish, which will be devoured by millions for more than 50 days.
