MS Dhoni’s Successful Career
Dhoni, who had led India to triumph in all three major ICC white-ball tournaments, has become a name in cricket history with his calm but influential leadership. After his retirement from international cricket in 2020, Dhoni continued to remain in the limelight by being associated with Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the IPL. Ahead of the 2024 IPL season, CSK retained Dhoni as an uncapped player for ₹4 crore, a status granted due to his last international match being in 2019.
