Record former four-time Indian Premier League (IPL) champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will begin its preparatory camp for the upcoming tournament edition at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Friday. CSK captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who is expected to reach the city on Friday, will be part of the camp along with several Indian squad members.
“CSK will begin training from tomorrow. Dhoni will be reaching out tomorrow. The Indian team members will be attending the camp,” CSK CEO KS Viswanathan said on Thursday. Ajinkya Rahane and Ambati Rayudu will also be a part of the camp. During the auction earlier this year, the franchise had roped in England Test captain Ben Stokes and New Zealand pacer Kyle Jamieson.

However, Jamieson could miss the tournament due to the recurrence of a back injury. CSK sources said a replacement for Jamieson would be decided after consultations with Dhoni. CSK will take on defending champion Gujarat Titans (GT) in the season opener on March 31. CSK has been placed in Group B alongside Punjab Kings (PBKS), SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH), Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and GT.
