Suresh Raina, a former Indian and current captain of CSK, shared his opinions. Ruturaj Gaikwad, according to “Mr. IPL,” would be the perfect choice to lead CSK going forward as captain. Additionally, he speculated that if Dhoni left, he would still be in the dugout, coaching mental toughness or just being there.
After leading Chennai Super Kings to an unprecedented fifth Indian Premier League victory the previous season, former captain of India and current captain of the team, MS Dhoni, is now entering the sunset part of his storied career. There’s no better way to commemorate this chapter of his life than this.
At 42 years old, Dhoni is expected to retire following the conclusion of the forthcoming Indian Premier League season. Despite having his left knee heavily wrapped, Dhoni continued to play in the IPL 2023. He underwent rehabilitation to recover from his knee injuries because of his unwavering resolve and strong physical and mental health.
For the 2022 Indian Premier League season, Dhoni resigned as captain. With an incredibly low total of four wins from fourteen games, CSK did not do well, ranking ninth in the ten-franchise league. Indian cricketer Ravindra Jadeja handed up the captaincy to Dhoni following the disappointing season, and the rest is history.
“Who will be their next captain? That is the main question. Dhoni would still be in the dugout, coaching mental toughness or just being there. He wouldn’t even stand down as captain. However, MS Dhoni appears to be focused on who? “Ruturaj Gaikwad seems like a solid choice,” Raina stated to JioCinema.
Dhoni should play for at least two or three more years, according to Suresh Raina.
MS Dhoni claimed the 2024 season was a “gift” to his fans following the IPL 2023 victory. Dhoni was batting “very well” in the nets, according to Mike Hussey, the current batting coach at CSK and a former player. While this was going on, Raina said that CSK would need to win more this year than Dhoni since it would determine the deputy captain, who would most likely be the team’s future captain.
“We will see who CSK chooses as his deputy and he will most likely say, ‘You handle this now,’ so this year is probably more significant for CSK than MS Dhoni. Since 2008, I have been managing the team. He is currently 42 years old. Raina said, “I hope he plays for five more years, or at least two or three.”
