As the days pass by, chances to see MS Dhoni playing in the IPL 2027 season gradually become thinner and thinner. He is now 45, and uncertainty over the legendary keeper-batter shows no sign of decreasing at this moment.

If the previous and latest claims made by the RevSportz journalist Rohit Juglan are to be believed, then the former captain is unlikely to play in the IPL 2027 as a player. In a previous social media post, it was claimed that MS Dhoni could be appointed as a support staff member of the team, not as the head coach, but in a more important role than a regular player. newsindata.org

What is the future of MS Dhoni with the Chennai Super Kings?

In the future, MS Dhoni as a mentor of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) is not looking impossible, but not confirmed yet. The CSK team management is currently looking for a coach in place of Stephen Fleming.

After a devastating season across the franchise leagues, CSK broke their tie with their long-serving head coach Stephen Fleming. As Dhoni is nearing his retirement with Fleming's exit, the transition phase of the team instantly becomes intensified.

CSK's primary aim is to appoint a new head coach ahead of IPL 2027

In the last few seasons, the franchise officials mostly put their efforts into the team-building process; now, they are required to redecorate their coaching set-up as well. What will be MS Dhoni's future in the next season can be finalized only after the appointment of the new coach. Who will be CSK's new head coach, the successor of Stephen Fleming? It is yet to be decided.

In his latest YouTube video from his own channel, the journalist claimed that MS Dhoni as a player next year is most probably not going to happen. For which role he could join the team is also not fixed yet.

MS Dhoni will not play for CSK

He also mentioned that ahead of next season’s auction, a lot of things will change around the franchise with the arrival of the new head coach. So currently, there are a lot of complications over Dhoni’s future in CSK.

“That it's very much possible that you won't see Mahendra Singh Dhoni as a player next year. I don't know in what capacity he will come. The things are yet to come out in what capacity he will join Chennai Super Kings. But today also, what I understood after talking is that again it's becoming difficult,” it is claimed on the YouTube channel ‘Rohit Juglan’.

“As we are moving towards the next IPL, or for that matter towards the auction or towards the trade release retentions, it's again getting difficult to think that, yeah, you will see Mahendra Singh Dhoni playing as a player. A lot will change. I have been telling you this from before. Around Chennai Super Kings, you will see a lot of changes, and I told you, people, three-four days ago around this that, you know, they are looking for a new coach,” it is further claimed by Juglan.

In an interesting turn of events, former Australia all-rounder Moises Henriques has been named the captain of the Portugal cricket team for the men’s ICC T20 World Cup Sub-Regional Europe Qualifier C that is slated to be played from August 14 to 21 in Finland.

As Portugal hope for qualification for the T20 World Cup 2028, which will be hosted by Australia and New Zealand, they picked Henriques as soon as he was available following his international retirement.

A middle-order batsman and a right-arm medium pacer, Henriques made his Australia debut in 2009 and played 24 T20Is, 16 ODIs, and four Test matches. His last international match for Australia came in 2021, and he’s been a white-ball regular in domestic cricket and BBL, where he’s successfully led the Sydney Sixers.

How is Moises Henriques picked for the Portugal cricket team?

39-year-old Henriques retired from international and Australian domestic cricket in July. He is eligible to play for Portugal, as he was born in Funchal, the Portuguese island of Madeira, which is the birthplace of football legend Cristiano Ronaldo.

Henriques moved to Australia with his family when he was a child and became a mainstay of New South Wales domestic teams and the Sydney Sixers in the BBL.

The right-hander played a record 154 matches for the Sixers in the Big Bash League. Apart from that, the Aussie all-rounder featured in 62 IPL matches for five teams – KKR, RCB, DC, SRH, and PBKS – his last appearance coming in 2021.

Henriques currently holds a contract with Glasgow Cosmic in the European T20 Premier League, but that is not to interfere with his commitment to the Portugal team. He replaced Carlos Nunes as the Portugal skipper.

Portugal are slotted in Group B of the ICC T20 World Cup Sub-Regional Europe Qualifier C, alongside Israel, Germany, Greece, and Czechia. The winners of both Group A and B will collide in the final on August 21.

The winner of this competition will proceed to the European regional finals tournament, which includes Scotland, Jersey, and Denmark. The top two teams from the European regional tournament will advance to the main global qualifiers tournament, from where the remaining spots in the T20 World Cup 2028 will be filled.

Portugal’s squad also includes the South Africa-born Craig Cachopa, who has turned up for Sussex, Auckland, and Wellington in the past, and the Bangladesh-born Siraj Ullah Khadem.

Portugal squad for ICC T20 World Cup Europe Sub-Regional Qualifier C:

Moises Henriques (C), Hardeep Khuttan, Edward Fleming, Jeremy Martins, Christopher de Freitas, Dhavalkumar Norotam (wk), Siraj Ullah Khadem, Craig Cachopa, Jordan Netto, Carlos Nunes, Sebastian de Oliveira, Rahulkumar Hashu, Upen Shantu, Cameron Shekleton

The Delhi High Court has refused to grant bail to Olympian Sushil Kumar in the alleged murder case of former junior national wrestling champion Sagar Dhankar.

Justice Purushaindra Kumar dismissed the wrestler’s bail application on August 6, citing concerns over influencing witnesses raised by the Supreme Court when it cancelled his earlier bail, his conduct prior to arrest, the gravity of the offence and his capacity to influence the ongoing trial’s outcome.

The judge emphasised that while bail is ordinarily the rule and jail the exception, the offence in the present case was a “premeditated and gruesome assault resulting in death”, which is corroborated by recovery of a firearm, video evidence and a large body of material yet to be tested at trial.

Seeking relief, the counsel for the accused alleged that the deceased’s father, whose complaint led to the earlier cancellation of bail, has not supported the prosecution’s case in the trial.

It was therefore contended that the “change in circumstances”, along with the fact that Kumar had been in custody for over five years and only formal and official witnesses were left to be examined, entitled him to regular bail.

Delhi Police and Dhankar’s father opposed the bail application. The court noted that the characterisation of Dhankar’s father’s testimony as unsupportive of the prosecution was disputed.

It further said the Supreme Court, while cancelling the earlier bail, proceeded on the finding that Kumar had a considerable societal standing and influence and witnesses turned hostile every time he was extended temporary liberty.
