MS Dhoni News: Former India and CSK (Chennai Super Kings) captain MS Dhoni has confirmed that he will remain involved with the franchise for as long as 15-20 years in the future. However, Dhoni also added to the 'uncertainty' of him featuring as a player in the franchise or not. Notably, Dhoni took over the captaincy duties yet again after regular captain Ruturaj Gaikwad was ruled out of mid IPL 2025 due to injury.
The veteran cricketer, who appeared in an event recently, spoke over his long association with CSK.
“I have always said that there is a lot of time for me to decide, but if you are asking about coming back in a yellow jersey I will always be in a yellow jersey, whether I am playing or not, is a different matter.”
“Me and CSK, we are together," Dhoni said during an event recently. “You know, even for the next 15-20 years (crowd cheers). I hope they don't think I'll be playing for another 15-20 years."

“I feel the relationship over the years has grown. It helped me improve as a person. It helped me improve as a cricketer. CSK just happened. I think it's good for Chennai. So, today it's good for me also," he said.
The 2025 season for Chennai was terrible to say the least as they finished on bottom of the points table.
“Yes, the last couple of years have not been good for us. We have not been up to the mark. But what is important is for you to see the learnings. Yes, you had a bad season. But what went wrong? And that was the question for us last year also," Dhoni concluded.
