Dhoni, who was accompanied by his bride Sakshi Rawat, did not go with the squad yesterday as he stayed back to receive an honorary membership from the Madras Cricket Club last evening.
The function was organised to acknowledge the Chennai Super Kings' title triumph in IPL-III under Dhoni's leadership.
India are without pace mainstay Zaheer Khan, who is nursing a shoulder injury.
