The schedule for the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL) has been released, with Chennai Super Kings taking against Gujarat on March 31. With MS Dhoni playing for the CSK in Chennai for the first time in three years, the IPL will this time be contested in a home-and-away format. In Chennai, there is a sizable fan base for the former captain of India. Former Australia opener Matthew Hayden discussed the welcome Chennai Super Kings skipper MS Dhoni would receive when he enters the field at Chepauk after nearly three years on Star Sports following the release of the IPL 2023 schedule.
“It will be a memorable occasion. We were all under the notion that MSD would return last year, in my opinion. He made the significant declaration that he will return at the end of the IPL season. That signifies that the entire Yellow Army has suddenly become more united around the superior leader who has been doing it for such a long time. I believe that this will be the end of his IPL career. His performance will therefore be crucial for CSK this season, not just for the spectators who will watch those first few games “said Hayden.
