Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper, MS Dhoni has revealed that he will be with the team in the next season as well. Asked about if the fans will be able to see him in the yellow jersey again, Dhoni said that he will definitely return next season. He stated that if the Indian Premier League (IPL) travels across the country next season, he will be able to thank the fans all across the country.

MS Dhoni was asked about his future plans with CSK because there have been a plethora of speculations about his retirement before CSK’s final match against Rajasthan Royals. MS Dhoni said. “Definitely. It’s a simple reason.. it will be unfair to not play in Chennai and say thank you. Mumbai is one place, whereas a team and as an individual, I have got a lot of love and affection. But it wouldn’t be nice to the CSK fans.”

He further added, “And also, hopefully, next year there will be an opportunity where the teams will be travelling so it will be a like thank you to all the different places where we will be playing games at different venues. Whether it will be my last year or not that’s a big question, because you know we can’t really predict something two years down the line, but definitely I’ll be working hard to come back strong next year.”

MS Dhoni has been playing for CSK for well over a decade. He reached cult status in the city within the first few years of the IPL.

 

Under MS Dhoni, Chennai Super Kings won four IPL titles in 2010, 2011, 2018 and 2021. When CSK were suspended for two years because of the spot-fixing scandal, he represented Rising Pune Supergiant and when he returned to lead the Super Kings again, he led them to their third IPL trophy.

However, Chennai Super Kings, the defending champions, were the second team after MI to be eliminated from the playoffs race.
