In IPL 2025, Mahendra Singh Dhoni will once again be seen captaining Chennai Super Kings. Dhoni has been given the command of the team after the regular CSK captain Rituraj Gaikwad was injured. Fans are very excited by this. Dhoni will enter the field as a captain against Kolkata Knight Riders on 11 April. Here, Dhoni was declared the captain of Chennai Super Kings and on the other hand he took a big IPL record. He will be the first such uncapulated player who is going to captain the IPL again. After 5 years of retirement of international cricket, that player is considered uncontempted in the IPL. This is the reason that CSK has to retain Dhoni for only 4 crores. Amidst Dhoni becoming captain, an old video of former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag is becoming increasingly viral. In which he is seen criticizing Dhoni.

What did Virender Sehwag say

An old statement of former Team India opener Virender Sehwag is going viral on social media. In this, he criticized Dhoni. This video is from 2019. Dhoni came on the field by dugout against the umpire's decision in the match played against Rajasthan Royals in the 12th season of IPL. Due to this, Dhoni had to suffer a lot of criticism. Half of Dhoni's match fee has been deducted. In this case, Sehwag had said that Dhoni should be banned for 2-3 matches.

Sehwag further said that if he had done this for the Indian team, I would have been very happy. I never saw him so angry during the captaincy of the Indian team. I think he is getting more emotional about CSK. Sehwag had said in the video that I think he should not have come on the field when two players of Chennai were on the field. That two players were also as angry about no ball as Dhoni. So I think they should have allowed it to go.

Why this video is going viral now

What Virender Sehwag said at that time was right, but crores of fans do not like to listen to words like Dhoni. Not a great player like Virender Sehwag at all. That is why fans are trying to tell Sehwag's old statement viral that even at the age of 43, Dhoni is ready to captain. The era in which the old players have been out of the field.
