The Island
|April 05, 2025
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain Ruturaj Gaikwad is a doubtful starter for their home game against Delhi Captals (DC) at Chepauk on Saturday. MS Dhoni is likely to take over captaincy if Gaikwad doesn't recover in time.

Gaikwad had suffered a blow on his unprotected elbow against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Guwahati last Sunday after stepping out to Tushar Deshpande and missing the ball in the second over in CSK's unsuccessful chase of 183.
"Yeah, we're hoping he [Gaikwad] is going to try and have a bat today for training," Michael Hussey, CSK's batting coach, said at his press conference on the eve of the match. "And, yeah, it [elbow] is still a little bit sore, but it's improving every day. So, we're very hopeful that he'll be fine for tomorrow.
