Fans are up for a heartbreak ahead of the IPL as Mahendra Singh Dhoni has stepped down as the captain of Chennai Super Kings. As per reports, opener Ruturaj Gaikwad will lead the team in this season of the Indian Premiere League.
Responding to the development, former RCB and Team India captain Virat Kohli penned an emotional note for Dhoni after the news came in that he is no longer leading CSK which he led to five IPL titles.
As per Irfan, he met with Dhoni a few days ago and while the CSK captain’s knee looks fine, it won’t be a catalyst for Dhoni to promote himself.
The maiden win will definitely boost the confidence of the men’s team who are looking forward to beginning the IPL 2024 with a clash with MS Dhoni’s CSK. As a franchise, this win will always be special for the RCB franchise.
Ashwin was a part of the CSK team in the inaugural edition, but he did not get a chance to play then. Later in 2009, he made his debut against the Mumbai Indians (MI) in Cape Town.
As the 17 edition of IPL is some days away, here are the 5 key players to watch out for CSK.
However, as luck would have it, Mohit Sharma missed his length in his 5th bowl and Jadeja smashed him for a huge six. Later, the team needed four runs to win the match in the last ball.
The players were in a state of shock when Dhoni said he wanted to retire from the longest format of the game.
Dhoni’s former CSK teammate Ambati Rayudu has provided a unique suggestion for the wicketkeeper-batter to ensure he remains fit for longer durations and remains available for the side in crucial situations.
Replying to the post, Harbhajan Singh wrote, “No Indians have such dreams… You guys also plz stop dreaming and now wake up…” His hilarious reply has left netizens in splits.
Responding to the comparison, Jurel said nobody can quite match up to the former India captain and he would rather focus on carving his own niche in international cricket.
Former cricketer AB de Villiers hailed Dhoni for his longevity in the game of cricket even now.
CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan has finally broken silence over who can lead CSK after Dhoni calls it quits. As per Viswanathan, the next skipper of the team will not be decided by him or any other top official, rather the captain and coach will take this call.
These artworks showcased two different looks of the former Indian captain – one with long hair and another with short hair. The legendry cricketer graciously accepted the paintings. He also posed with the young fan creating a memorable moment.
The current wicketkeeper of the Indian team- Dhruv Jurel showed Dhoni like alertness when he predicted a move of an England batsman to help the bowler grab his wicket.
