The Chennai Super Kings have been in the news since the very start of the IPL 2020 season but for all not so positive reasons. The MSD- led CSK team has been the last one to hit the practice nets after 13 members tested positive for COVID-19 after they arrived in the UAE. Among those who tested positive include two players- frontline seamer Deepak Chahar and batsman Ruturaj Gaikwad.
The team also lost two of its key senior players- Suresh Raina and Harbhajan Singh, who withdrew from the tournament due to personal reasons. However, fans are eagerly waiting for the tournament opener - CSK vs MI- as it has been over a year since MS Dhoni last featured in a cricket match.
