The long wait for Chennai fans to see their favorite Chennai Super Kings (CSK) team in action is over as the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 will return to home-and-away format after more than 2 years. The IPL 2023 will open with CSK taking on defending champions Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on March 31.
However, Dhoni and CSK’s first home game will take place on April 3 as they face KL Rahul-led Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). The four-time champions will take on arch-rivals Mumbai Indians (MI) in what has come to be known as the IPL ‘El Clasico’, the first of which will take place in Mumbai on April 8 while the one in Chennai will be on May 6th.
Former India skipper and CSK captain Dhoni will possibly play his final IPL match in Chennai on May 14 against Shreyas Iyer’s Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). CSK’s final ground stage fixture will be against Delhi Capitals on May 20 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
