Dhoni rules out IPL retirement after last match against Gujarat

Gulf Today

May 26, 2025

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) legend Mahendra Singh Dhoni has refused to confirm or deny whether he will continue to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and said he will fix his future after taking a break.

The wicket-keeper batter signed off his brief return to captaincy by leading CSK to a massive 83-run victory over Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday.

Though CSK signed off with a dominant victory in their final league match, former India captain Dhoni was a far cry from his former self during IPL 2025. He scored 196 runs across 14 matches at an average of 24.50. His strike rate of 135.17 speaks volumes given he was batting at a strike rate of 220.55 the previous season.

Dhoni claimed he has the 'luxury of time' to think about his future and make a decision in the coming months. If it indeed was his last game, fans will be disappointed he did not get a chance to bat despite being geared up in his usual batting attire. He did not get a chance to make an impact on the scoreboard.
