Four-time champions CSK finished the season in ninth place, having suffered 10 defeats while managing to win only four times

Proving the speculation by a cross-section of cricket experts correct, MS Dhoni has left the captainship of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL 2022 season. His old teammate and gusty all-rounder, Ravindra Jadeja will take over the leadership role from Dhoni, much to the astonishment of CSK fans.
Many cricket experts feel that Dhoni has passed his prime and his prowess as a finisher has waned over the years
