Almost all of the Indian Premier League (IPL) teams have begun planning for the 15th season of the competition, which will take place in 2022. The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have also begun their preparations for the new season, which is the latest development in the ongoing story. The captain of the squad may catch the Chennai supporters by surprise this time around, according to sources. It has been reported recently that Chennai Super Kings (CSK) may be able to alter their captain this time around since MS Dhoni would be expected to give up his leadership to another player in the team.
Captain MS Dhoni, as well as the rest of the CSK staff, have made it plain that they want to plan forward for the long term. In the forthcoming season, Dhoni has the option of delegating the direction of the team to another player. When faced with such a circumstance, some of the most recent speculations claim that Dhoni may delegate his captaincy to Ravindra Jadeja, with MS serving as the team’s mentor.
Is this just speculation or is there more to it than meets the eye?
Ahead of the big auction, CSK has retained four cricketers from the previous season. They have kept MS Dhoni as captain of the squad, and they have also retained Ravindra Jadeja and Rituraj Gaikwad, both of whom played significant roles in the side’s championship triumph last season. Apart from that, all-rounder, Moeen Ali has been picked to represent the Chennai Super Kings among the international players.
Ravindra Jadeja has been maintained as the team’s number one player in retention, with MS Dhoni retaining his position as the team’s number two. Currently, Moeen Ali is the third-ranked player, while Rituraj Gaikwad is the fourth-ranked player.
CSK won the coveted trophy for the fourth time in the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League, and they will be aiming to win the trophy again in the 2022 season as well. With the addition of the new captain, the franchise will be able to plan the future blueprint for the Chennai-based franchise in the 2022 season, with MS Dhoni serving as the team’s mentor.

Chennai Super Kings is one of the most successful teams in IPL history and MS Dhoni is the reason
Founded in 2008, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) is one of the most successful teams in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The club has a massive fan following that spans the world. Captain MS Dhoni has been a significant component in the team’s tremendous success in the Indian Premier League (IPL) throughout the years. In twelve seasons, he has guided the squad to an incredible nine finals appearances and four championships.
Since the first season of the Indian Premier League in 2008, Dhoni’s name has been associated with the success of the Chennai Super Kings. CSK captain, on the other hand, is already in the twilight of his cricketing career and may not be able to continue playing for much longer, having already announced his retirement from international cricket in 2020.
Even though the 40-year-old has been retained by CSK ahead of the IPL 2022, Dhoni is not likely to continue playing for the rest of his contract’s remaining three years. When MS Dhoni chooses to retire from all forms of cricket, the Chennai Super Kings will need a new captain to take the helm, and the hunt for a new leader seems to have already begun.
