CSK Boosted by Brevis Return, Dhoni Sidelined vs DC
11 Apr
Summary
- Dewald Brevis returns to CSK after injury, boosting team morale.
- MS Dhoni's return to play is further delayed due to a calf strain.
- Delhi Capitals face concerns over Nitish Rana's form.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have been bolstered by the confirmed fitness of young South African player Dewald Brevis, who returns after a side strain. This is a welcome development for CSK, who are seeking their first win of the IPL 2026 season.
Despite a lengthy net session, former captain MS Dhoni's return to the playing XI will be delayed further. He has been sidelined with a calf strain and is now expected to feature in the match against Kolkata Knight Riders on Tuesday, April 14, rather than the upcoming clash against Delhi Capitals.
The Delhi Capitals (DC) have had a promising start to their campaign, though they narrowly missed a third consecutive win. They are considering changes, with Nitish Rana's form being a point of concern. Ashutosh Sharma may replace Rana to add firepower at the end of the innings.
DC will also be without injured Mitchell Starc but welcome back T. Natarajan, who expressed gratitude for the support staff's role in his recovery from a collarbone injury sustained last year. Natarajan highlighted extensive training camps that aided his return to form.
