Moeen joined the CSK camp in 2021 and was promoted to No. 3 hitter during the season. He scored 357 runs in 15 matches at a strike rate of 137.31 and an average of 25.50. The next year, MS Dhoni and company won the championship for the fourth time, becoming the league’s second-most successful side after Mumbai Indians.

Moeen Ali discussed his time with CSK in an interview with Cricbuzz before the 2023 season of the Indian Premier League, which is expected to be Dhoni’s last. Ali now represents Sharjah Warriors as their franchise captain in the International League T20.
