With the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) witnessing Indian cricket legend MS Dhoni don the yellow jersey once again, the former CSK captain may be playing his final season for the 5-time champions.
With the team playing their final home game in the league stage this season, Chennai Super Kings fans were left intrigued by a social media post from the franchise just before their crucial IPL 2024 match against Rajasthan Royals in Chennai on Sunday.

MS Dhoni Farewell To Be Announced?
CSK took to social media to share a special message with the supporters: “Requesting the Superfans to Stay back after the game! Something special coming your way!”. While many fans speculated that the team would take a lap of honor as it’s their final IPL 2024 league game at home, others suggested it could be an announcement regarding MS Dhoni’s future. If Dhoni decides to retire from IPL after this season and CSK fail to reach the final, this could be his last game in Chennai.
The match holds significant importance for both teams. A win for Rajasthan Royals will secure their spot in the playoffs. Meanwhile, CSK must win to keep their IPL 2024 playoff hopes alive. However, a loss would leave them in a difficult position, requiring a significant victory over Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their final group-stage match.
