Dhoni always looked fine when he was keeping wickets for CSK in the IPL but the veteran had played the entire season with heavy strapping on his knee -- also the reason why he mostly avoided running between the wickets and came out to bat as low as number eight at times.
Dhoni is on the road to recovery after undergoing a successfully left knee surgery in a Mumbai hospital, last month. He reportedly consulted renowned sports orthopedic surgeon Dr Dinshaw Pardiwala, who had performed surgeries on star injured cricketer Rishabh Pant as well.
"Yes, Dhoni has had a successful knee surgery at the Kokilaben Hospital in Mumbai on Thursday. He is doing fine and the surgery happened in the morning. I don't have details. I am yet to get all the details about the nature of surgery and other things," CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan confirmed to PTI.
"He will be discharged in a day or two. He would be resting for a few days before his extensive rehabilitation starts. It is now expected that he would have enough time to get fit to play in the next IPL," another source close to CSK management told PTI on conditions of anonymity.
