IPL 2025: MS Dhoni MS Dhoni was seen playing for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2024 not as a captain but as a player. Before the 2024 IPL, Dhoni left the captaincy and young Ruturaj Gaikwad was given the command of Chennai. A lot of time has passed since IPL 2024, but nothing is clear about whether Mahi will play in the next season or not. Now the report that has come out tells how Dhoni’s decision to play the next IPL is based on a ‘condition’.
The decision of Mahi playing the next season seems to depend on BCCI. According to a report by Cricbuzz, if BCCI allows teams to retain 5-6 players in IPL, then only Dhoni can continue playing as a player.
Let us tell you that the mega auction of IPL is to be held before 2025. Before the mega auction, there is a lot of discussion that IPL teams are demanding BCCI to retain more than 4 players. At present, teams can retain only 4 players before the mega auction. Now it will be interesting to see whether BCCI changes the retention policy of players before the mega auction or not.
How was Chennai’s performance under Gaikwad’s captaincy
Under Gaikwad’s captaincy, Chennai could not enter the playoffs of IPL 2024. The team finished 5th in the points table. Chennai won 7 out of 14 matches and lost 7. Even though Chennai did not make it to the playoffs, a good performance was seen in batting and captaincy from captain Ruturaj Gaikwad. Now in the next season, all eyes will be on Gaikwad again. Fans would like to see whether Gaikwad will be able to maintain the legacy of Dhoni and Chennai or not.
