A shocking claim about Ashwin’s name
Chennai Super Kings, one of the most successful teams in the IPL, have a big question ahead of the next season as to who will lead the team after Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Chennai Super Kings won the title last season under the leadership of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. However, former Indian captain Dhoni has turned 42 and is in the final years of his professional cricket career. Mahendra Singh Dhoni is believed to retire from the league after IPL 2024. In such a situation, the question arises as to who will take charge of the most successful team in the league after Dhoni.
