MS Dhoni’s impact and fascination on cricket, especially the IPL, is not going to end anytime soon. The 42-year-old wicketkeeper-batsman resigned as captain of the Chennai Super Kings ahead of IPL 2024 but continued to dominate the game with his presence. He recently shocked all the fans and cricket experts with his six-wicket hat-trick off Mumbai Indians skipper Hardik Pandya. Dhoni is trying every day to keep up with his age and set a new example for the next generation.

Amidst all this action, another thing on everyone’s mind is Dhoni’s possible retirement from the IPL. Everyone is curious to know whether the 42-year-old will continue to play for CSK in IPL 2025.

Recently, former CSK batsman Suresh Raina, one of the commentators for Jio Cinema, was asked: “Will Dhoni play another season of IPL?”

Raina gave a powerful, one-word answer: “Khelenge. (He will play).”

Former India pacer RP Singh, who was also part of the panel, smiled at Raina’s confident response and said it now looks like MSD has two seasons left.

Earlier, Raina also revealed the CSK star’s reaction after hearing Bhojpuri’s comments. Dhoni hails from Jharkhand.

“Dhoni ma’am was discussing the Bhojpuri review. He said, ‘Bahut hi Gajabe review kar rahe Bhojpuri me.’ (They did a good job in Bhojpuri) and I told him that Haryanvi was also good,” Raina revealed while speaking on Jio Cinema.

Talking about the match against arch-rivals MI, Dhoni hit a four-ball 20 in the El Clasico match of the IPL.

MI captain Hardik Pandya was the target of his wrath. In the end, CSK’s 20 points were crucial and the team won by 20 points.
