Mahendra Singh Dhoni: The 18th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will start in just two days. The IPL is a tournament that everyone waits to watch. This cash-rich league tournament, which is played in the shortest form of the game, is like a festival for cricket fans in India and overseas.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni is a national icon and inspiration to many young batters and wicketkeepers especially those who come from a small town to make a career in cricket. MSD is a man who has the same number of Indian Premier League trophies as Rohit Sharma. Both MI and CSK have five IPL titles each.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the former Indian captain and the former skipper of the Chennai Super Kings, will play the upcoming season of the TATA IPL 2025 which starts from Saturday, 22nd March 2025 to Sunday 25th May 2025. MS quit his captain last year and Ruturaj Gaikwad will still continue to lead the Yellow Army in this edition.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni is still the only Indian skipper to win all three ICC trophies. Now Rohit Sharma is close to equalling that record after India won the two back-to-back ICC trophies, the T20 World Cup in 2024 and the ICC Champions Trophy in this year. HITMAN would certainly aim to clinch the 2027 ODI World Cup to achieve a similar feat of MSD.

Mahi Bhai does not play any competitive cricket other than the IPL since he announced his retirement from international cricket in 2020. But according to the viral video shared on social media, Mahendra Singh Dhoni can still compete against any world-class pace bowler.
In the training session of the Chennai Super Kings, Mahendra Singh Dhoni whacked CSK’s and Sri Lankan premier fast bowler, Matheesha Pathirana for a six and he had hit his favourite helicopter shot, which reminded his fans about his prime days when Mahi used to dominate the Sri Lankan legend, Lasith Malinga.
The 43-year-old young wicketkeeper batter had an impressive strike rate of 220.55 in the last five seasons of the Indian Premier League and that too, despite the issues with his knees. Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the world’s best finisher, has played that role for CSK and he will be continuing with that in this edition as well.
