India’s cricket legend MS Dhoni, despite an injury, has shone brightly in IPL 2024 and may return next season. Dhoni played through this tournament with a muscle tear and now, after Chennai Super Kings (CSK) failed to make the playoffs, he plans to seek treatment in London.

“Dhoni might head to London for his muscle tear surgery, which saw him struggling during the IPL. He is not fully fit but wants to continue playing cricket. He will decide about his future only after treatment, which will take him five to six months to recover,” sources said as quoted by One Cricket.

This year, Dhoni handed over the captaincy to Ruturaj Gaikwad. Under Gaikwad’s leadership, CSK had a balanced run, winning seven matches and losing 7, finishing with 14 points. Unfortunately, they missed out on a playoff spot due to a lower net run rate compared to other teams. Dhoni’s future in IPL will depend on his recovery post-surgery. Fans are going to watch his progress closely, hoping to see their hero return in IPL 2025.

This development leaves CSK supporters and the broader cricketing world in suspense, eagerly waiting for updates on Dhoni’s health and decisions. As we all think, his return would be a huge boost for the team and a delight for fans worldwide.
