IPL 2024: Mahendra Singh Dhoni had handed over the captaincy of Chennai Super Kings to Rituraj Gaikwad before the start of IPL 2024. In such a situation, questions were being raised whether Dhoni will play the next season of the Indian Premier League or whether he will take retirement after the conclusion of the current season. Now a video has surfaced, in which RP Singh and Suresh Raina were asked whether Dhoni will play in IPL 2025. Although RP Singh appeared to be avoiding answering this question, Suresh Raina has given good news to the CSK fans by saying 'will play'.
Suresh Raina and RP Singh, Dhoni are good friends of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. In such a situation, if Raina has claimed to play in Dhoni's next season, then perhaps 'Thala' will definitely be seen playing in IPL 2025. This statement of Suresh Raina has come at a time when MS Dhoni is suffering from knee problem. Last Monday, CSK's bowling consultant Eric Simmons had admitted that Dhoni was suffering from a knee injury and no one could even imagine how much pain he would be feeling. Dhoni was also seen limping in a hotel after the recent match against Mumbai Indians. He was seen limping in the field during the match against Delhi Capitals.

Dhoni is batting brilliantly in IPL 2024
On one hand, RP Singh was last seen playing in IPL in 2016. On the other hand, Suresh Raina last played in 2021. Well, both these players have left cricket, but MS Dhoni's love for cricket continues to increase even after increasing age. In IPL 2024, MS Dhoni has faced only 25 balls so far, in which he has scored 59 runs at a strike rate of 236. It is also a surprising fact that Dhoni's boundary percentage has been excellent because 52 of his 59 runs have come from the boundary.
