Recently, Dhoni had said that his back was holding up and with the World Cup coming up, he can't afford his niggling back problem to worsen.
"Well you would have to ask Dhoni that question. I think what I know about him is that he doesn't want to miss any matches. He loves playing for CSK, this place is very close to his heart and he wants to play and do well and wants to see the team have success.
"So trying to get him to have rest is very difficult," Hussey told reporters here ahead of Friday's IPL match against Mumbai Indians.
"I don't know what he (Dhoni) wants to do in that respect, but we will have to wait and see. I think he is keen to play all the games," he said about the CSK captain.
Asked Hussey if he was concerned about the team's batting despite Shane Watson's return to form with a swashbuckling 96 against Sunrisers on Tuesday, he replied in the negative.
"I am not concerned. It was great to see Watson's innings the other day, it has been coming. We have been watching these guys closely in the nets and Watson in particular has been hitting the ball well. We knew there was a big score coming and let us hope he can have that consistency in the back end of the tournament," he said.
"I was really proud of the way MS (Dhoni) and (Stephen) Fleming showed faith in him (Watson), kept believing in the way he can play and he can win matches for CSK. They stuck with him and that was well rewarded.”
