Dhoni to Decide IPL Future Soon

MS Dhoni

CSK CEO confirmed that Dhoni would announce his decision regarding IPL 2025 before the end of October.

Amid ongoing speculation surrounding MS Dhoni’s potential participation in IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) CEO Kasi Viswanathan has revealed that a decision could be expected before October 31. Viswanathan, in an interview, expressed the franchise’s desire for Dhoni to continue playing but mentioned that the final call rests with the legendary cricketer.

“We also want Dhoni to play in the CSK team. But Dhoni has not confirmed it to us yet. Dhoni said, ‘I will tell you before October 31.’ We hope that he will play,” Viswanathan was quoted as saying by Sports Vikatan.

If Dhoni agrees to play, CSK can retain him for Rs 4 crore, as he qualifies as an ‘uncapped’ player, having not played international cricket since 2019. By the time the 2025 IPL season starts, Dhoni will be nearing 44 years of age, leaving fans eager to see if he will continue his storied IPL career.

Dhoni’s Chances of Playing T10 Cricket

In addition to the IPL, there is also speculation about Dhoni exploring the T10 format. Shaji Ul Mulk, Chairman of T10 Global Sports, expressed confidence that Dhoni might consider joining the T10 league, following in the footsteps of former Indian cricketers like Robin Uthappa, Suresh Raina, and Irfan Pathan.

“I think outside of the top level of international cricketers playing, current India internationals are not allowed to play outside of the Indian Premier League. The recently retired players, almost all the big names of India, have come to play T10. So yes, we can expect MS Dhoni to be playing T10 when he makes up his mind,” Shaji told ANI.

Given Dhoni’s illustrious career across Test, ODI, and T20 formats, the fast-paced T10 league in Abu Dhabi, UAE, could offer a new and exciting challenge for the former Indian captain.
