Everyone thought that MS Dhoni would retire from IPL after the finals of IPL 2023, but CSK ultimately secured a victory. Dhoni was dealing with an injury throughout the whole season of IPL and received immense support in all parts of India as it was believed that it was his last season.
However, Dhoni surprised everyone with his statement in the post-match presentation of the IPL 2023 Final. He said that he would like to have just one more season in order to pay back the love and gratitude that he received from his fans all over the world. He added that it was easy to walk away with the trophy, but it would be extremely difficult to play another season, and despite that, he is willing to do that for his fans.

After the conclusion of the IPL, Dhoni underwent a successful knee surgery and was retained by Chennai Super Kings ahead of IPL 2024. This has ensured that he will lead the Yellow Army in IPL 2024. However, what happens after the conclusion of IPL 2024? Will Dhoni finally retire?
At the moment, CSK has yet to find a successor for MS Dhoni, and it seems that if Dhoni remains fully fit during the course of IPL 2024, then he will continue as the skipper for CSK in IPL 2025. Everything will surely depend on the fitness of MS Dhoni and his willingness to continue playing for CSK.
