Ahead of IPL 2025, news is coming from Chennai Super Kings (CSK), one of the most successful teams, that the team management may drop former captain and five-time IPL winner MS Dhoni. If media reports are to be believed, Dhoni will be dropped by the Chennai management before the upcoming season due to his performance.
