To continue as a player for another seasonMahendra Singh Dhoni brought the curtains down on the most defining element of his cricket career - captaincy of Chennai Super Kings. He has handed over the leadership duties to Ravindra Jadeja, but will carry on as a player for one more season.
Chennai Super Kings is a film, then MS Dhoni is its screenplay writer, director, main protagonist with a fine producer in N Srinivasan, who believed in his man's vision implicitly. But after 14 years, for the first time, the word captain won't be associated with Dhoni as he relinquished leadership duties with a sporting entity which had become a part of his identity. CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan has told everyone in the media that it was Dhoni's own decision and one should respect it.
Chennai Super Kings' star all-rounder Moeen Ali has secured his India visa and will be available for selection from the second game of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL), the franchise's CEO Kasi Viswanathan said on Thursday. Though the England player is arriving in Mumbai on Thursday, the defending champions will miss the services of Moeen for Saturday's IPL-15 opener against Kolkata Knight Riders, as he will have to complete a three-day quarantine before joining the team.
Chennai Super Kings will kick off the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League against former winners Kolkata Knight Riders on Saturday as the Twenty20 tournament returns home with an expanded version following the addition of two new teams. The entire 2020 edition of the cash-rich tournament and the second half of last year's tournament were held in the United Arab Emirates as India grappled with the COVID-19 pandemic. Mumbai will host 55 matches in three stadiums in and around the city, while Pune - also in the Western state of Maharashtra - will host the remaining 15 league games which means air travel will not be required for the league's 10 franchises. Fans will also be allowed to attend matches, with a 25% occupancy limit, during the 2022 edition with COVID-19 restrictions easing in the country.
Ravindra Jadeja is the new Chennai Super Kings captain. He takes over captaincy of the second most successful IPL team from the legendary Mahendra Singh Dhoni. "MS Dhoni has decided to hand over the leadership of Chennai Super Kings and picked Ravindra Jadeja to lead the team," CSK said in a statement on Thursday.

Four-time IPL champions Chennai Super Kings on Wednesday unveiled their new jersey for IPL-15. CSK captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, in a video, unboxed the new-look jersey featuring camouflage design on the shoulders and four stars atop the franchise's logo. Last year, CSK added the camouflage on the jersey as a tribute to the Indian armed forces. The four stars highlight the four titles they have won so far in the IPL -- in 2010, 2011, 2018 and 2021.
