Will MS Dhoni In IPL 2025 As Uncapped Player: MS Dhoni retired from international cricket in 2020. However, he has continued to play IPL. Now once again questions are being raised about Dhoni’s playing in the next IPL i.e. 2025. It is not yet clear whether 43-year-old Dhoni will play the next IPL or not. Now India’s star spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has talked about Dhoni playing the next IPL.
Let us tell you that Dhoni did not captain Chennai Super Kings in the 2024 IPL. Ruturaj Gaikwad was seen leading the team in place of Dhoni. Dhoni not captaining can also be a sign of his retirement. However, nothing has been clarified by Dhoni regarding his retirement yet.
Will Dhoni play IPL as an uncapped player?
Uncapped players are those who have not played international cricket. Dhoni last played international cricket in 2019. From 2008 to IPL 2021, there was a rule under which players who had retired for more than five years were considered uncapped players.
In an ESPN report, it was mentioned that in the meeting of IPL team owners with BCCI, there was a demand from Chennai Super Kings to bring back this rule.
Speaking on the issue of uncapped players on his YouTube channel, Ashwin said, “Will Dhoni play as an uncapped player? This is a big question mark. The point is right. He has not played international cricket for many years. He is retired. So he is an uncapped player. He is not a capped player. Can’t a player like Dhoni play as an uncapped player? This is a topic of separate discussion. Obviously, if someone talks about Dhoni, everyone will talk about it.”
