MS Dhoni will return! The biggest cricket icon in the world will not leave the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) or the IPL. This comes directly from his CSK teammates, Matheesha Pathirana and Daryl Mitchell, days after the Men in Yellow were knocked out of the IPL 2024 season.
MS Dhoni coming back confirm CSK teammates
Many had feared that they had seen the last of Thala. But, luckily for fans and the whole cricket fraternity, Dhoni will continue to don the CSK jersey in IPL 2025. However, there is a twist in the tale. Pathirana and Mitchell may have confirmed that ‘7’ will return, but they haven’t said in what role.
MS Dhoni to return as coach in IPL 2025?
This could mean that Dhoni might have retired as a cricketer but will continue to be with CSK as their coach or mentor. Everyone knows that injuries have been plaguing him for a while. He underwent a knee surgery last year and was playing with a muscle tear in his leg and an impaired back during the IPL 2024 season as well. Being 42 isn’t helping his recovery either, and for the first time in many years, we can see a decline in his speed and reflexes.
