Chennai Super Kings captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni underwent a knee surgery on Thursday, after he was seen battling with a knee problem in the 16th season of the recently held IPL.

The CSK captain used to land in every match by tying a bandage around his knee and was batting lower down the order during the IPL 2023.

According to media reports, Dhoni was at Mumbai’s Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital and Medical Research Institute on May 31, Wednesday, where he was admitted for his knee surgery and at 8 am on Thursday, the operation concluded successfully.

During this period, Dhoni met Dr. Dinshaw Pardiwala, who is a specialist in sports orthopedics as well as the director of sports medicine at the hospital. He is the same doctor treating Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant. Pardiwala also operated on Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra in 2019.

Last year at the end of December, Pant had a terrible accident near Uttarakhand’s Roorkee, while he was driving his car.

After his successful knee surgery, MS Dhoni was spotted in Mumbai, the picture is viral across the internet, spreading happiness to his fans.

In the viral picture, the former Indian cricket team captain can be seen sharing a South Indian meal with another person sitting next to him.

Before travelling to Mumbai, Dhoni talked to the management of the Chennai Super Kings explaining about his condition and the franchise sent its official team physician Dr. Madhu Thottappili to accompany Dhoni to Mumbai. Earlier on Wednesday, Chennai Super Kings CEO Kashi Vishwanathan was also informed about Dhoni’s injury.

During the 16th edition of the IPL, one question that almost every cricket fan asked was about MS Dhoni’s future with CSK. To this, the Chennai CEO refuting any speculations said the team is not thinking in that direction as it has not reached that stage and it will entirely be Dhoni’s call, the team has not given a thought about it.

Dhoni, who quit international cricket on August 15, 2020, said after this year’s IPL final, he would take a call on his availability for the next edition of the tournament before the auctions.
