Hussey’s Words about the captaincy

“Yeah, we are hoping he’s going to try and have a bat today for training. And, yeah, it's still a little bit sore, but it's improving every day. So, we’re very hopeful, very confident that he’ll be fine for tomorrow (Saturday), “Hussey stated at the game evening. When questioned about potential captaincy candidates, Hussey made a powerful reference to Dhoni.

I don't think we have actually thought that captaincy very well and I haven’t thought about it too much. I am sure Stephen Fleming (CSK head coach) and Rutu will be well aware of that, “Hussey said at the pre-match press conference.

But we have got a young guy coming through. He’s behind the stumps. Maybe he can do a good job. I am not sure. He’s got a bit of experience in the role, so maybe he could do it. But I am not exactly sure, to be honest, “Hussey said.

Dhoni’s Captaincy Record

Under MS Dhoni’s captaincy in the Chennai-based side, the CSK team has won 128 and lost 82. In his reign, the Chennai Super Kings won five titles in the IPL - 2010, 2011, 2018, 2021, and 2023 - and reached the finals 10 times. He also led Rising Pune Supergiant in a few matches.
