Watch: MS Dhoni touches down in Hyderabad ahead of high-stakes SRH vs CSK encounter
MS Dhoni arrives in Hyderabad as CSK gear up for a crucial IPL 2026 clash against SRH, with fans buzzing ahead of the high-stakes encounter.

The 27th match of the 19th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL)is between the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Hyderabad. Both teams have returned to their winning ways this season and will have their eyes on this upcoming match. For SRH, the match is at home, but for CSK, it's an away game. Moreover, the visitors haven't won a single game in Hyderabad in the last eight years.
Hence, the match is going to be extremely challenging for the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led side. Meanwhile, the fans have received some good news as MS Dhoni has travelled with the team to Hyderabad ahead of the match. The discourse around Dhoni's inclusion in the first match is still ongoing, as the franchise has not given a clear answer yet.
MS Dhoni travels to Hyderabad with CSK for upcoming clash
CSK's former skipper MS Dhoni hasn't played a single match for the franchise this season due to an injury. He is going through rehab and has started practising in the nets as well. Dhoni's injury is not new, and he went through a knee surgery before the previous season. This means that he is not fully fit and is taking it slow this time.
The fans are waiting to know whether Dhoni will play against SRH. The franchise informed a few days earlier that Dhoni would play in the match against KKR, which was scheduled on April 14, but that didn't happen. The audience will have to wait until the toss to know Dhoni's participation in the match. The former captain's inclusion will also change the team's dynamics, so the decision will have to be taken cautiously.
