IPL 2025: Hopefully, Dhoni will be available for CSK - Kasi Viswanathan

Chennai Super Kings CEO Kasi Viswanathan said he is 'very, very hopeful' of former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni participating in IPL 2025 as a player. Dhoni, who led CSK to a record five Indian Premier League titles, stepped down as the skipper before the start of the ongoing season, handing the responsibilities to Ruturaj Gaikwad, who led the team to a fifth place finish.

Gaikwad did not do a bad job as a captain and a batter but CSK could not make the IPL play-offs. Dhoni's future in the IPL remains a subject of debate as he has left everyone guessing. He retired from international cricket in 2020. With due respect to Gaikwad, de Villiers had called the captaincy change a mistake at the start of the season and on Wednesday he stood by his remarks. "I will only give you an honest answer if you're going to report it in the right way yes so I wouldn't say I called it a mistake. What I meant by that was with MS Dhoni around, playing against
