Speculations are rife over the playing future of Dhoni who had stepped down from the CSK captaincy a day before IPL 2024 got underway giving credence to rumours that this is indeed the last season as a player.
However, as per several media reports, Dhoni hasn’t discussed his future with the CSK management yet but is expected to reveal it in the coming months.
Dhoni will reportedly fly to London to get his leg treated which bothered him during the entirety of the season and thus limiting his movement. The wicketkeeper-batter had played last IPL too with an injury for which he underwent a surgery.
