Wednesday, 25th August 2021

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have commenced preparations for the tournament's United Arab Emirates (UAE) leg, with the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 season poised to resume. When the season begins in September, the team will be looking to clinch a playoff berth and go on a winning streak. On Tuesday, the Chennai franchise used social media to share a video of captain MS Dhoni training during a net session. The CSK skipper was spotted hitting many enormous sixes with ease, and he will be trying to maintain this form throughout the tournament.

Following the exercise, Dhoni and some of his teammates were spotted attempting to rescue some of the balls from the bushes. "Hit and Seek IPL 2021 was suspended midway in May due to a surge in COVID-19 instances in the bio-secure bubbles," CSK captioned the video on Instagram. CSK had two high-profile cases as well, with trainers Michael Hussey and Lakshmipathy Balaji both testing positive for the virus.

CSK were in terrific form before the season was prematurely ended, winning five games and losing only two. They were in second place on the points table, behind the Delhi Capitals (DC).

The third-placed Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) was followed by the Mumbai Indians (MI).

The Dhoni-led side will continue their campaign on September 19 at the Dubai International Stadium against defending champions MI. The match between CSK and MI will also serve as the resumption of the IPL in 2021.
