Everyone's favourite, Mahendra Singh Dhoni has already reached Chennai to start his preparations for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Sunday announced the schedule for the IPL 14.
The three-time champions, and arguably the most consistent team in the league, finished a lowly seventh last season in the United Arab Emirates as the tournament was moved out of India due to coronavirus pandemic.
The 2021 season will be a new start for the 'yellow army'. Their season starts with a clash against Delhi Capitals in Mumbai.
