MS Dhoni once again surprised everyone in his old style and took this decision. Earlier in international cricket too, Dhoni had abruptly left the captaincy of the Test team and then the captaincy of the ODI and T20 team. At the same time, he had suddenly taken retirement from international cricket and surprised everyone, but now the question is whether he is going to call this league bye-bye after leaving the captaincy of IPL.

Most successful captain of IPL

After MS Dhoni, the captaincy of the CSK team has now been handed over to Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, who was associated with the CSK team in the year 2012. Since then, Jadeja has been playing under Dhonis's captaincy and his performance as an all-rounder has been tremendous. On the other hand, Dhoni will no longer captain the CSK team. Dhoni was the most successful captain of IPL and till last season he had captained 204 matches in this league. Out of these, they won 121 matches, while 82 matches were lost, while two matches ended without any result. Ravindra Jadeja will become the third captain to captain CSK. Earlier MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina had captained the team.
