In addition to the existing eight teams, two new franchises - Ahmedabad and Lucknow - will be seen playing in IPL 2022. Talking about Chennai Super Kings, the Yellow Army have won IPL title 4 times under Dhoni's captaincy. Only Mumbai Indians have won the IPL trophy (5 times) more than CSK.

Recently, Chennai Super Kings' skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni was cheered on when he announced that before he decides to retire his last T20 game would be in Chennai but said he does not know "whether it is next year or in five years' time".

Dhoni himself revealed that no decision had been taken yet on him continuing with CSK next season.

"I have always planned my cricket. The last game I played was in Ranchi. The last home game in ODI was at my hometown in Ranchi. So, hopefully, my last T20 will be in Chennai. Whether it's next year or in 5 years' time, we don't really know," Dhoni said during CSK's IPL victory celebration.
