Captain of Chennai Super Kings (CSK), MS Dhoni celebrated the New Year 2024 with his family. With wife Sakshi and daughter Ziva by his side, videos emerged showing their festive celebration. Close ones were also in attendance for the celebration.
Now, Dhoni is basking in family time. This is before he ventures into the upcoming IPL season. Not long ago, he made an appearance in Dubai for IPL 2024’s mini-auction.
Following a month-long trip in the U.S., Dhoni restfully returned to Ranchi. His U.S. escapade was succeeded by a brief stay in his native village Lwali, Uttarakhand. This was to celebrate Sakshi’s birthday during the 2023 ODI World Cup.
A catchy caption followed Sakshi’s Instagram post:
“Happy New Year from us to all of you! Have a stellar year ahead.”

“He has recovered well (from his knee injury)” – CSK CEO Kasi Vishwanathan on MS Dhoni’s fitness
CSK’s top executive, Kasi Viswanathan, recently gave a confirmation. He shared that MS Dhoni has regained his fitness. He also mentioned that the wicketkeeper-batter is eager to play again. This comes after Dhoni’s knee injury recovery. He got this injury while taking part in the victorious IPL season last year, as reported by ANI.
“He has recovered well (from his knee injury). He is undergoing his rehab programmes, started training. By the time the next IPL starts, I am sure he will be fit to play.”

Dhoni made a suggestion earlier in the year that he would participate in the next IPL. The 42-year-old said to Jio Cinema, the official IPL broadcaster:
“If you see circumstantially this is the best time for me to announce retirement but the amount of love and affection I’ve been shown wherever I’ve been this year, the easy thing for me would be to say, ‘Thank you very much’. But the tough thing for me is to work hard for another nine months and come back and play at least one more season of IPL.”

He added:
“But a lot depends on the body, I have six-seven months to decide and it will be more like a gift from my side [to the fans]. It’s not easy for me but the way they’ve shown their love and affection, that’s something I need to do for them.”
