Renowned as the iconic Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain, Mahendra Singh Dhoni is creating a buzz. Dhoni readies himself for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season. Despite undergoing knee surgery post-IPL 2023, Dhoni's return for the 2024 edition was met with widespread enthusiasm. Meanwhile, glimpses of his intense training sessions in Ranchi have gone viral.

Following his triumphant leadership in the IPL 2023 final, CSK secured their record-equalling 5th title. Dhoni's decision to return and the subsequent retention by CSK solidified his pivotal role in the upcoming season. Known for his finishing prowess, Dhoni's leadership has propelled CSK to remarkable heights, earning them five IPL trophies. As he eyes a record-breaking sixth title in IPL 2024, Dhoni cements his status as one of the greatest captains in IPL history.

Amidst his rigorous training, Dhoni's recent visit to the Deori Maa Temple in Ranchi showcased his humble demeanour and enduring popularity. A heartwarming video capturing his interaction with a young child during the visit further endeared him to fans.

When will MS Dhoni continue in the IPL?

While Dhoni's return is confirmed, speculation looms over his future post-IPL 2024. CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan hinted that Dhoni alone holds the key to whether this marks his final season, adding an element of suspense to his future endeavours.

CSK's preparations for IPL 2024 extended beyond retaining Dhoni. The team strategically bolstered its squad during the Players Auction, securing six players, including talents like Daryl Mitchell and Sameer Rizvi. With these strategic moves, CSK aims to defend their IPL title with renewed vigour, setting the stage for another thrilling season under the captaincy of the legendary MS Dhoni.

The Indian Premier League 2024 is likely to start in the last week of March and will extend until the end of May 2024. The Chennai Super Kings will be keen to defend their title and will also look to prepare for a transition phase.
