MS Dhoni has been retained by Chennai Super Kings as an uncapped player for this season of the IPL. CSK kept him for INR 4 crore, which allowed them to save money and spend big on other players. This season could be Dhoni’s last in the IPL. Recently, he was seen wearing a T-shirt with the words “One last time” written in Morse code.

Earlier, Dhoni spoke about what keeps him motivated to play in the IPL at 43. The five-time IPL-winning captain said he has to train for six to eight months a year just to stay fit for two months of cricket. Since he retired from international cricket, MS Dhoni has been joining Chennai Super Kings’ training camps earlier than most other players.
