Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the former captain of India, will return to the cricket field as the upcoming Indian T20 League (IPL) season is set to begin soon. The Chennai franchise will once again be led by Dhoni, who will be crucial to the four-time champions. While Dhoni's leadership is never a source of concern for the supporters, both the management and the supporters have expressed concern about his batting.
The former captain of India is very aware of the problem and is putting a lot of effort into improving his batting. Yet according to a video that Chennai posted on social media, their skipper appears to have found a solution as he is shown tonking sixes as the team is in practice. On back-to-back deliveries, Dhoni can be seen smashing the ball out of the park.

Is this MS Dhoni's last season in the Indian T20 League?
MS Dhoni's final year playing in the Indian Premier League is anticipated to be this one. In the prior Indian T20 League, Dhoni said that he intended to tour the nation and bid his fans farewell throughout the competition. Ravindra Jadeja, Dhoni's longtime assistant, was appointed the captain of the Chennai franchise last year, but the choice was changed midway through the campaign.
Jadeja nonetheless will be a key part of the Chennai franchise and will have to share the burden of carrying the team forward along with several other senior players in the team in the hope of a better performance in this season of the Indian T20 League
Importantly, Chennai is set to begin their season on March 31 against the reigning champion Gujarat. The four-time champions did not do well past season, finishing in second-to-last place. Because of this, they'll be trying to change things, and the yellow army will be rooting for Thala to have fun.Ben Stokes, meanwhile, will be crucial for the Chennai franchise and may even replace Dhoni as captain in the future.
