In the interim, CSK kicked off its training sessions on March 2, with the likes of Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ravindranth Hangargekar, Mukesh Choudhary, and Prashant Solanki stepping into the mix. Captain MS Dhoni also attended the camp a few days ago, while Ravindra Jadeja and Moeen Ali arrived in Chennai on Sunday.
CSK suffered a setback just before the start of the season as New Zealand opener Devon Conway underwent surgery on his thumb after injuring it during the third T20 against Australia. He’s likely to miss at least the initial part of the tournament.
On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bangalore has also begun its practice sessions as many foreign players have already joined their camp, but they are still awaiting their star, Virat Kohli.
Batting superstar Kohli returned to India on Sunday after the birth of his second child in London. Kohli last played for India in January against Afghanistan in a T20 series. During this period, anticipation surrounds his involvement in RCB’s forthcoming ‘Unlock’ promotional affair slated for March 19 in Bangalore.
