Ahead of IPL 2026, ex-India cricketer Suresh Raina said the youngsters need CSK wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni's mentorship. "Dhoni's role as a keeper-batter will be very important...But his role as a sarpanch (head) will be even more crucial - guiding players on what to do in each situation," he added. CSK will face RR in their tournament opener on March 30.
