Chennai Super Kings was one of the teams to reach the gulf country early and start their preparations for the second half of the marquee tournament. The three-time champions are currently preparing in Dubai as all the players are sweating hard and are leaving no stone unturned in the practice sessions.

However, with less than one month remaining for the commencement of the league, skipper MS Dhoni has made all his fans go berserk. The wicketkeeper-batsman was seen practising and smashing the balls out of the ground with ease.

Notably, CSK skipper had the worst season in 2020 as he managed just 200 runs from 14 games, the least number of runs he has scored in an IPL season. While in the first half of the IPL 2021 he has scored only 37 runs in 7 innings so far and if he’s in the form as seen in the video, he can posses a major threat for other teams and can add another IPL trophy in his cabinet.
