MS Dhoni is the former captain of CSK and has been leading the team since it was started in 2008, except for the two years when the team was banned, and in several matches in 2022 when Ravindar Jadeja took charge of captaincy, but that didn’t go well. Dhoni last led CSK in the 2023 IPL final, when they won and achieved the IPL trophy.
However, Ruturaj Gaikwad was made the new captain when the 2024 IPL season started. CSK finished that season in 5th place and missed the playoffs because of net run rate.
CSK not only won their fifth IPL title, but also they denied GT their second championship on the bounce. Previously, Gujarat had announced as the champion of IPL 2022, in their debut season, after defeating Rajasthan Royals in the final.
This season has been a rough time for the CSK team. They’re currently in the position on the points table with just one win, that also against Mumbai Indians, followed by four back-to-back losses. CSK still has 9 matches left, and from now onwards, MS Dhoni will be the captain of the team again.
