Chennai Super Kings, Mrs. Donni, said on Wednesday that he would decide his future in the IPL after he worked hard for 6-8 months and evaluating whether his body could deal with the game’s demands. The former Indian commander, who met a yellow sea everywhere he goes in IPL, admitted that in the last term of his career and the fans do not know which game could be the last. “This is the love and affection that I got all the time. Don’t forget to reach 43 years old. I have played for a long time. Many of them do not know when the last year will be, so they want to come and support me and watch me playing,” Deni said after his victory in Colkka Knight.
“I only play two months a year. When this IPL ends, I must work for the next 6-8 months to see if my body is able to eat this type of pressure. Nothing I have to decide yet, but the love and affection that I get everywhere is excellent.”
Deni, who underwent knee surgery in 2023, continued to fight fitness fears. CSK coach Stephen Fleming recently admitted that the veteran “could not hit 10 games running a full stick.” “There is no escape from the truth (I am in the last stage of my career). After this IPL has ended, I must work hard for another 6-8 months to see if my body can take this pressure.
The victory was a third of the CSK season only from a disappointing season marred by the inconsistency. As the qualifying hopes drop, Dhoni said that the focus is now on testing the power of the bench.
“There were some things that did not go on our way. You can be emotional on this topic, and talk about the pride factor, but you have to be practical about it.
“Just focus on the place where the 25 player can fit. You want to be able to compete but you also want answers – which can suit the mixture, which can be a football player, where, according to the circumstances and everything. When we started, it was hardly anyone to score.
“We are outside the championship, so give them a chance, we see how they interact. This is the approach, the mental hardness you want to check. The most technically polished mixture does not always record running, if you have a good awareness … there is a chance to be consistent.” Meanwhile, the defeat leaves KKR with minimal hopes of rehabilitation. When asked about the way forward, Captain Agukia Ranhan said: “It is very simple, now we have to win two out of two, let’s see what is happening from there.”
