Ruturaj Gaikwad ruled out with elbow injury, MS Dhoni to lead CSK

Chennai Super Kings skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad has been ruled out of IPL 2025 with an elbow injury. MS Dhoni is set to replace him as the captain for the remainder of the season.

“He got hit in Guwahati. He’s been operating with an amount of pain,” CSK head coach Stephen Fleming said in Chennai. “We got an X-ray, which was inconclusive, and we had an MRI, which revealed a fracture in his elbow, in the radial neck.

“So we’re disappointed and feel for him. We appreciate the efforts that he’s gone to in terms of trying to play, but unfortunately, he’d be out of the tournament from now. We have an uncapped player, MS Dhoni, who will take over as captain for the remainder of the IPL.”
