In a move that has sent cricket fans into a frenzy, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) is reportedly gearing up to retain their iconic captain, MS Dhoni, for a staggering Rs 4 crore ahead of the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) season.
While official confirmation is yet to be made, sources within the franchise have hinted at the possibility of Dhoni continuing his association with the Yellow Army for another season. The veteran wicket-keeper-batter has been an integral part of CSK’s success, leading the team to multiple IPL titles.
Dhoni’s retirement from international cricket in 2020 sparked speculation about his future in the IPL. However, the 43-year-old has continued to be a vital cog in the CSK machinery, demonstrating his exceptional leadership skills and match-winning abilities.
As the IPL 2025 auction approaches, the prospect of Dhoni returning to the field has generated immense excitement among fans. His presence in the tournament is expected to boost viewership and attract new audiences.
While the final decision on Dhoni’s retention will be made in the coming weeks, the possibility of seeing him don the CSK jersey once again has left cricket enthusiasts eagerly anticipating the start of the next IPL season.
