Will MS Dhoni Be Back For Chennai Super Kings In IPL 2025?
Regarding his cricketing future, Dhoni's return for another Indian Premier League (IPL) season remains uncertain due to his age. Known for his explosive batting in IPL 2024, the veteran keeper-batter showcased his prowess primarily in the slog overs for Chennai Super Kings. He maintained an impressive strike rate of 220.25 across 14 matches, amassing 161 runs at an average of 53.67.
Despite Dhoni's contributions, the defending champions failed to secure a playoff berth following a crucial defeat to Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. Looking ahead, CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan expressed hope for Dhoni's availability in the 2025 season, although the cricketing icon's decision remains uncertain.
"I do not know. It is a question which only MS can answer. The question for us, we have always respected the decisions taken by MS, we have left it to him. As all of you know, he has always taken his decisions and announced it at the appropriate time. We do expect that we will get a decision as and when he decides. But we are very, very hopeful that he will be available for CSK the next year. That is the view and expectations of the fans and mine," Viswanathan said.
