The 17th edition or IPL 2023 is set to start in April next year. The auction for the same happened on December 19 in Dubai and all the franchises have sealed their designated players. However, just before the start of the IPL, the speculation on MS Dhoni’s retirement is once again surrounding the environment.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) CEO Kasi Viswanathan discussed captain MS Dhoni’s future as the upcoming IPL season approaches. Viswanathan mentioned that the legendary wicketkeeper-batsman has been reserved about his intentions and is expected to disclose them directly to the fans.
Amidst significant speculation during IPL 2023 that it might be Dhoni’s last season, the cricketer indicated a return for the 2024 edition. Despite leading the franchise to their 6th title, he suffered some knee challenges.
During the launch of the Junior Super Kings event in Chennai, the CEO said,”That I do not know. See, as far as the captain is concerned, he will answer you directly. He does not tell us what he is going to do. He is doing well now. He has started his rehab. He started working in the gym. And, probably in another 10 days he’ll start working in the nets also.”
Dhoni struggled with the bat in the last season but his captaincy turned out to be the important factor for the team. He went on to win the fifth title in the history of the tournament.
