In a surprising twist for the upcoming IPL 2025 season, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) could retain their iconic captain, MS Dhoni, for just Rs 4 crore. This revelation comes after the BCCI introduced a rule that could classify Dhoni as an uncapped player. 

CSK’s Opportunity to Retain Dhoni at a Bargain

According to the newly introduced retention rules, any Indian player who has retired from international cricket for at least five years will now be considered uncapped. 

This brings MS Dhoni, who retired from international cricket in 2020, into the uncapped category. With this change, CSK can retain him as one of their two uncapped players, costing the franchise just Rs 4 crore—a huge bargain for one of the most successful captains in IPL history.

MS Dhoni’s Role in IPL 2025

While Dhoni has retired from international cricket, his role in the IPL remains critical. As CSK’s former captain, he still brings invaluable experience and leadership to the team. 

His presence on the field, combined with his tactical acumen, continues to make him an irreplaceable figure for CSK. Retaining him for Rs 4 crore allows the team to secure their captain without impacting their budget heavily.
