He Told Me He Won't Play As Impact Player: Badrinath Reveals Dhonis Stance On CSK Role
Former Chennai Super Kings: Former Chennai Super Kings batter S Badrinath has revealed that MS Dhoni does not see himself taking the field as an Impact Player, saying the former India captain personally conveyed his preference to continue as a full-time wicketkeeper despite questions surrounding his role ahead of the Indian Premier League 2026 season. Dhonis future and potential role have emerged as major talking points for CSK following another campaign in which the franchise failed to make the playoffs. With concerns over his physical workload continuing, Badrinath said using Dhoni selectively could offer the five-time champions a tactical advantage, although the veteran wicketkeeper has made his own position clear. He has personally told me that he wont play as an Impact Player. He sees himself as a full-time keeper, and that means he has to be on the field for the full 20 overs. So he wont play as an Impact Player, but I feel if he does, itll tactically benefit CSK, Badrinath said on his YouTube channel. His body cannot withstand long durations, which even Fleming has said. He is only going to bat after the 16th over and keep wickets. When his participation is so less, he would be ideal as an Impact Player, he added. The former CSK player also weighed in on the wider debate surrounding the Impact Player rule, particularly its perceived effect on Shivam Dubes opportunities as a bowler for the franchise. Badrinath rejected the suggestion that the rule itself was responsible for Dube not bowling regularly for CSK. Shivam Dube bowling for India but not for CSK is not because of the Impact Player rule. It has to do with the CSK management and their lack of usage of Dube with the ball. Why are they using him as an Impact Player? The rule cannot be blamed, Badrinath stated. Badrinath also questioned the teams handling of Akeal Hosein, arguing that the spinner should be an automatic selection in the starting XI rather than being kept in reserve as an Impact Player. Shivam Dube bowling for India but not for CSK is not because of the Impact Player rule. It has to do with the CSK management and their lack of usage of Dube with the ball.
