“The coach will be under pressure” – MS Dhoni delivers major hint about his future and retirement in IPL after IPL 2023

The Indian Premier League (IPL) is one of the most popular and lucrative cricket leagues in the world. Every year, it attracts top players from around the globe, and cricket fans eagerly await the tournament’s start. However, as the players age, retirement becomes an inevitable topic of discussion, and MS Dhoni, the former Indian cricket team captain, is no exception.

In a recent interview, when asked about his retirement from the IPL, Dhoni responded by saying, “There’s a lot of time to take that call. Right now, we have lots of games to play, and if I tell something, the coach will be under pressure.” Dhoni’s response highlights the dilemma faced by aging players who must balance their love for the game with the physical toll it takes on their bodies.

MS Dhoni, who is now 41 years old, is one of the most successful players in IPL history. He has captained the Chennai Super Kings to foir IPL championships and is widely considered to be one of the best finishers in the game. However, as he has aged, his performance has declined somewhat, leading to speculation about his retirement.

Dhoni’s comments suggest that he is not yet ready to make a decision about his future in the IPL. He is still committed to playing the game and is focused on the upcoming matches. He also acknowledges the pressure that a public announcement of his retirement would place on his team’s coach, which could distract the team from their goal of winning the tournament.

For a player like Dhoni, retirement is a complex decision that involves many factors. On one hand, he wants to continue playing the game he loves and contributing to his team’s success. On the other hand, he must consider the toll that the game takes on his body and whether he can continue to perform at the level that is expected of him.

MS Dhoni will be in action tonight in the match number 24 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 when his team Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will take on the Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) from 7:30 PM Indian Standard Time (IST).
