Before the beginning of the season, he had given up the CSK captaincy with an eye toward the future and Ravindra Jadeja was appointed as his successor.However, the allrounder’s form coupled with defeats of the yellow brigade prompted him to have a rethink before he finally gave up his captaincy.

Jadeja decided to relinquish captaincy midway through the season and Dhoni once again took up the responsibility.After CSK’s dismal performance in 2022, speculations were rife that Dhoni would call quits before 2023. However, he put an end to speculations and confirmed that he will be playing in the forthcoming edition as well.

As MS Dhoni turned 41 years old, fans and cricketers took to social media to extend greetings to one of India's favourite cricketing sons. Dhoni himself is in England on the occasion. A few pictures from his birthday party have surfaced online.

One of the most beloved cricketers of all time, MS Dhoni turns a year younger on July 07, 2022. A global cricketing icon, Dhoni has left a lasting impression on the lives of several cricketers. As the wicket-keeper batsman turns another chapter, wishes poured in on social media from fans and cricketers on this special occasion.
On the occasion of Dhoni's 41st birthday, Suresh Raina was one of the first cricketers to take to Twitter and greet the Ranchi-born cricketer. The bond that Raina and Dhoni share isn't hidden from anyone. The southpaw's wish, hence, was an extremely special one.
