MS Dhoni shocked everyone by unexpectedly stepping down as captain of the Chennai Super Kings, the team he helped win the IPL a record five times. Dhoni broke the hearts of the fans by resigning as captain one day before the IPL 2024 season began. Had MS Dhoni kept the fact that he had resigned as Chennai Super Kings captain a secret from the public? He didn't even bring this up to the CSK CEO. MS Dhoni had informed everyone a short time before the IPL 2024 captains' photo shoot. This was disclosed by Kashi Vishwanath, the CEO of CSK.

After Dhoni's retirement from the captaincy in the 2024 Indian Premier League, Rituraj Gaikwad was appointed captain by the Chennai Super Kings management. According to media reports, CSK CEO Kashi Vishwanath has revealed that even he was not aware of MS Dhoni's decision to step down from captaincy. Dhoni had shared this decision with him just before the IPL event in Chennai.

Vishwanathan said that Dhoni does everything thoughtfully in the interest of the team. I came to know about this decision of Dhoni just before the captains' meeting. You have to respect Dhoni's decision because it is his decision. Let us tell you that this is the second time when Dhoni has left the captaincy of CSK. Earlier, he had left the captaincy in 2022, after which Ravindra Jadeja was made the captain.

Dhoni has been the captain of CSK since the first season of IPL 2008. He has made the team champion a record 5 times. Now it will be interesting to see how Ruturaj Gaikwad leads CSK. Will he be able to handle the pressure of captaincy or not? Today Chennai Super Kings is going to start the IPL 2024 campaign under his captaincy.
