IPL 2025: MS Dhoni will take a call on career after 6-8 months

Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, in his trademark style, did not give a clear indication about his swansong but said he might take that call before next year’s Indian Premier League season, depending on how his body fares over the next 6-8 months. “That’s the love and affection I have gotten throughout. Not to forget, I’m 43 and I have played for a long time,” Dhoni said referring to the warm reception and cheers he received from the Eden Gardens crowd. “They (the fans) don’t know when it will be my last year. It is a fact that I play only two months a year. After this IPL gets over, I have to work for another 6-8 months to see if my body is able to take this kind of pressure. Nothing to decide as of now, but the love and affection I get everywhere is excellent,” he said a...

‘MS Dhoni’s reading of angles is out of the world’: Venkatesh Iyer recounts former CSK captain’s plan that got him out in IPL 2023

While MS Dhoni may have left his captaincy days behind him, Kolkata Knight Riders all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer described an incident of the Chennai Super Kings talisman’s leadership acumen from his last season as the franchise’s skipper in 2023. The 30-year-old Iyer, who reunited with KKR during the IPL 2025 mega auction last November with a hefty price tag of Rs 23.75 crore, recounted Dhoni’s moment of “real captaincy” that left him gobsmacked during a CSK-KKR tie in Chennai. After Dhoni made a subtle adjustment in the field during KKR’s modest 145-run chase at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, the former India captain prevailed in setting up Iyer’s wicket off the very next ball, with Ravindra Jadeja holding onto a catch near the short-third position off Deepak Chahar’s bowling.
