SinceMS Dhoni's arrival in Chennai, fans have been going crazy to witness the formerIndian captain back on the field.

TheChennai Super Kings (CSK) captain is gearing up for the upcoming Indian PremierLeague (IPL) and has started preparations for the new campaign.

Sincebeing in the city, Dhoni has featured in numerous videos shared by CSK onsocial media.

OnFriday, he showed a glimpse of what he is still capable of as he sent the ballpacking during a net session. In a video tweeted by Star Sports Tamil, Dhoniwas seen hitting five back to back sixes in the nets. The video was shared bythe official broadcaster of the IPL, Star Sports, on Twitter.

Dhoni smashing the ball has been missed by many as the wicketkeeper-batsman last played a professional match during India's ICC World Cup 2019 semi-final defeat to New Zealand last year.

Since then, Dhoni's retirement from international cricket has been doing the rounds. His future, however, could be determined after seeing his performance in the upcoming IPL season with CSK.
