However, MS Dhoni is currently playing as a “unaccounted” player for Chennai. This is due to the rule implemented by the BCCI before 2025 IPL, under which no player, who has not been played in international cricket for more than four years, is considered unaccapted. Today Dhoni usually bat in the lower order and also take wicketkeeping. He has also batted at number eight in this match and the same sequence will continue.
