Legendary former Indian skipper and wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni continued to lead four-time former Indian Premier League (IPL) champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK). It is likely that IPL 2023 will be his last, as he wishes to play his final match in front of MA Chidambaram (Chepauk) Stadium fans, the home ground of CSK. Meanwhile, he is currently the wealthiest active Indian cricket. However, what might shock fans is that he has chosen a conservative treatment medium for his knee problem. He is reportedly consulting an Ayurvedic doctor to help him with the same, who has charged him just ₹40 for the treatment.
