Speculation About MS Dhoni’s Future in IPL

There’s a lot of talk about MS Dhoni’s future in the Indian Premier League (IPL) after Chennai Super Kings (CSK) didn’t make it to the IPL 2024 playoffs. Dhoni mainly played as a lower-order finisher this season, despite reports of a knee injury. After CSK lost to Royal Challengers Bangalore in a crucial match, fans and experts started wondering if it was Dhoni’s last game for CSK.

Wasim Akram’s “Gut Feeling” About Dhoni

Legendary Pakistan bowler Wasim Akram shared his thoughts on Dhoni’s future. He said he has a “gut feeling” that Dhoni won’t return for the next season. “Players like him come in a lifetime, it all depends on him,” Akram said on Sportskeeda.

Matthew Hayden’s Similar Sentiments

Former Australian cricketer Matthew Hayden also thinks Dhoni might be done playing in the IPL. After CSK’s loss to RCB, Hayden said on Star Sports Cricket Live, “I think this is it. I do believe that this will be the last time that Dhoni will play. But I’d be very surprised if he doesn’t take on a mentoring role or stay involved with CSK in some official capacity.”

Dhoni’s Leadership and Skills

Hayden praised Dhoni’s leadership and also talked about Dhoni’s role as a leader. Dhoni is known as “The Thala” of CSK, which means leader. Hayden emphasized that Dhoni always aims for first place and uses all his cricket knowledge and power, especially during the crucial final stages of the innings.
