RR vs CSK: Twitter Reacts As MS Dhoni Confirms He Will Play In IPL 2023

CSK is playing its final league game of IPL 2022 on Friday. They will not participate in the playoffs. This will be CSK’s final match of the season. This season, as in the previous two, there were rumours that this would be MS Dhoni’s final season.

Before the toss, Ian Bishop, perhaps one of the top commentators in the game, asked Dhoni if he would play in the next season or not. Dhoni will be 41 when the next IPL begins, so it will be interesting to watch if the CSK skipper continues to wear the yellow next year.

But for now, he rested all the rumours as he confirmed that he indeed would play in IPL 2023.

Dhoni had handed over the captaincy to Ravindra Jadeja before the season, but Jadeja returned it to him in the middle of the season. Dhoni revealed that Jadeja could not take the pressure and hence he handed him back the job.

Dhoni has always been a man with mysteries. He announced his Test retirement out of nowhere.

There were many rumours about Dhoni’s international career following the 2019 World Cup semifinal, but he put an end to them in his own unique way more than a year later when he announced his retirement from international cricket via a video on his Instagram account.

Dhoni, though, continued to play in the IPL.  When asked if he would participate the following season after CSK’s poor performance in IPL 2020, MS Dhoni replied he would without a doubt, and he did. There was a lot of conjecture for IPL 2022 that MS Dhoni would also retire from the league. After all, a big auction was planned, but the CSK management decided to retain him. Now MS Dhoni would be hoping that IPL moves to Chennai so that he can play his last game there.

Here’s how twitter reacted to MS Dhoni’s announcement:
