MS Dhoni, the former Indian cricket team captain and the skipper of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL), made an emotional “farewell” remark after a match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the IPL 2023 on April 23rd.
After the match, which CSK won by 49 runs on Sunday, Dhoni admitted that it was the last phase of his career at CSK, as he had announced his retirement from international cricket earlier that year. In response, Dhoni said, “I do appreciate the fans of CSK; the love and support they gave to me and my team is commendable. The number of people who came here was to give me a farewell remark, but I am very sure that next time they will give such support to the KKR for their performance.
The remark left fans speculating about Dhoni’s future with the CSK franchise, as he had led the team to four IPL titles in the past. However, Dhoni’s statement has given clear confirmation of his retirement from the IPL in 2023.
Overall, Dhoni’s remark was an emotional moment for his fans, who had grown accustomed to seeing him in the yellow jersey of CSK over the years. It was a reminder of his impact on the team and his enduring legacy in Indian cricket.
