Bravo had suffered a groin injury during the match against Delhi Capitals.
Nothing seems to be going in Chennai Super Kings' (CSK) favor this season with another of their player, all-rounder Dwayne Bravo returning home because of injury.
CSK still has four more matches to play, but Bravo, who suffered a groin injury during the game against Delhi Capitals (DC) will have to fly back with no further participation in the tournament.

Super Kings' CEO Kasi Viswanathan confirmed the news to ANI ahead of their match against Mumbai Indians (MI) at Sharjah on Friday. "No, Bravo isn't playing any more part this time around and the groin injury has ruled him out. He will be flying back in a day or two," the CEO said.
Before the tournament, Suresh Raina and Harbhajan Singh pulled out of the tournament because of personal reasons.
Kasi was asked whether CSK missed Raina and Harbhajan in the tournament and he replied, "Undoubtedly Raina and Harbhajan are both vital cogs in the CSK unit and they were missed. But you have to respect personal decisions and that is how we function irrespective of whether it is a senior or junior player".
CSK is currently at the bottom of the points table and with four must-win matches to come, it seems like a tough way ahead for the three-time IPL champions.
