IPL 2026: 'I Feel This Could Be MS Dhoni's Last Season,' Says Aakash Chopra
Indian Premier League: Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, which will start on March 28, could be the last season for Chennai Super Kings (CSK )'s most experienced player, MS Dhoni, as Sanju Samson is ready to be his heir. Chopra also said that veteran should consider retirement if he continues only as an Impact Player for Chennai Super Kings this season. You dont run the team from the dugout, its not football. In cricket, you need to be on the field, and MS Dhonis biggest asset is his ability to read the game better than anybody else. That clarity and conviction are what make him who he is. In any case, I feel this could be his last season, Chopra told Jio Hotstar. He has the heir apparent now. Sanju Samson will eventually don the gloves, it could even happen at some stage during this season. Again, conditions apply in terms of MS Dhonis fitness and his knee. But he cannot be the Impact Player. If he is playing as an Impact Player, I think its time for him to hang up his boots, he added. You dont run the team from the dugout, its not football. In cricket, you need to be on the field, and MS Dhonis biggest asset is his ability to read the game better than anybody else. That clarity and conviction are what make him who he is.

'MS Dhoni should retire, he cannot be the Impact Player'
Speculation surrounds MS Dhoni's role and future with Chennai Super Kings for IPL 2026. With fitness concerns and a younger squad, former cricketer Aakash Chopra suggests it might be time for the veteran to retire, paving the way for Ruturaj Gaikwad to lead. Dhoni's impact as a player versus a mentor is debated.
Former South Africa: Former South Africa player has opposed the idea of sending Chennai Super Kings (CSK) stalwart MS Dhoni up above the batting order in the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, which will commence on March 28, stating that the former captain's strength lies in making the best use of death overs. Dhoni, who will be the oldest player in the IPL 2026, is practising hard ahead of the tournament. He had a poor season last year, batting at the 8th position and not being impactful at the end. However, according to Du Plessis, this should not propel the team to change his position. There are a handful of players in the world who have that clarity and backing to do it in the 19th and 20th overs. The mere mortals out there think there is more pressure in the 19th and 20th overs than in the 16th. But his clarity in those last 18 balls of the match, when he can really zone in on what is required, is second to none, Du Plessis told Jio Hotstar. If you send him in earlier and he gets out, you lose that at the back end. And there are enough players in CSKs middle order who can do more damage in those phases, players like Brevis and Dube, who are exceptional spin-hitters. That is their strength, so back them to do that. MSs strength has always been in overs 17 to 20, facing the seamers, he added. The former CSK player also stated that Dhoni's presence in the field is crucial for the team's success, as he provides vital tactical support to the captain and possesses a deeper understanding of the game. MS Dhoni is the best tactician and one of the most successful cricketers in the game when it comes to leadership. But I dont think CSK saw him playing as many seasons as he eventually did. So, they had to look at who was going to be the next Captain. Ruturaj was the next guy, and I thought, coming into his first season, he did a great job. Its just unfortunate that he got injured last season, where they missed him as a batter and as a Captain. In terms of tactics, MS is one of the most brilliant minds, he explained. So, I'll always have him on the field because you need his cricketing brain. The way he sees and reads the game, and the way you see him manoeuvre fields, thats his real superpower. Yes, weve loved watching him bat. But for me, its more about what he brings on the field, and thats something CSK have to use, Du Plessis noted. Du Plessis also hailed Dhoni as the fastest gloveman in the game and believes that, despite Sanju's entry, Dhoni should be the wicketkeeper of the team. MS Dhoni being behind the stumps doesnt always equate to something happening, but what it does is create a little bit of doubt in the mind of a young batter walking in. When I walk out to bat, I might think, Whats this field? Why on earth are two men there? Even if he is not weak in that area, he said. Du Plessis also hailed Dhoni as the fastest gloveman in the game and believes that, despite Sanju's entry, Dhoni should be the wicketkeeper of the team.
