Mahendra Singh Dhoni Will Take Time And Decide About His Future With The Chennai Super Kings As A Player And As A Skipper

The most successful skipper of the Yellow Army, Chennai Super Kings would undoubtably be Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who has been leading this franchise side since the very first edition of the Indian Premier League in 2008. The Thalai of Chennai Super Kings, Dhoni has even won the joint most five trophies in this cash rich league tournament. Along with, CSK, MI is the team with same number of IPL titles.

After CSK’s last win over GT in their last league match of the 18th edition of the Indian Premier League, Mahi Bhai was asked about his future with the Yellow Army as a player and as a skipper by Harsha Bhogle, the famous and well known cricket commentator and broadcaster. In reply, Dhoni told Mr Bhogle that he will take time and decide on his return to the TATA IPL in 2026. But the 43 year old wicketkeeper, skipper and batter, didn’t not confirmed anything about his future plans with CSK.

As we all know that Dhoni’s retirement decisions are sudden. In 2014 when Mahi retired from the red ball format in Melbourne, he didn’t announce anything and he quietly quit Test Cricket and in 2020 as well, he announced, that he would retire from the other two form of the game as well with a message on his Instagram handle. So the fans of CSK and Mahendra Singh Dhoni, be ready for a shocker in the coming years because MSD will not let us know anything about his future plans in the Indian Premier League.

Mahi will take more four to five months to decide about his plans. Every year, he puts 15 percent of an extra effort to keep his body fit especially when he is playing a professional league cricket like the Indian Premier League. As a player, you need to give your best. MS also added that, players form shouldn’t be counted always and if you look at that perspective, a player who is just 22 and out of form might retire early.

Now Dhoni will head back to Ranchi, his hometown, spend sometime with the family and have some bike rides, then he will take call on his retirement plans from the Indian Premier League. In the 18th edition of this league tournament, Mahendra Singh Dhoni was the oldest player. Mahi also hinted that, he has some five to six months decide. Dhoni didn’t confirm that he will retire or weather he will return in TATA IPL 2026 edition.
