MS Dhoni in action during IPL 2025© AFP Chennai Super Kings (CSK) icon MS Dhoni became the fourth Indian batter to smash 350 sixes in the T20 format during their fixture against Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday in the 18th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Dhoni scripted the milestone to his name in the 16th over of the first innings when Riyan Parag tried to outwit the Chennai captain with his round-arm and zig-zag movement. Dhoni remained unfazed, waited for the moment, and hammered it flat over Parag’s head with his brute force. The 43-year-old became just the fourth Indian batter to achieve the feat after Rohit Sharma (542), Virat Kohli (434) and Suryakumar Yadav (368). Overall, the flamboyant Chris Gayle holds the record for most T20 maximums with a staggering tally of 1,056. CSK’s veteran exploits ended on the penultimate delivery of the first innings. Dhoni powerfully paddled the low full toss, but Tushar Deshpande put his hands out at short fine, and the ball …

MS Dhoni fell to a very sharp catch by former Chennai Super Kings player Tushar Deshpande during a match against Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025 on Tuesday. Much depended on Dhoni to take CSK to a 200-plus total, but he could only score 16 off 17 balls thanks to Deshpande’s efforts. It was a brilliant catch at short fine leg and even Deshpande was stunned. Dhoni got down on one knee to sweep a full toss. The ball went straight at Deshpande, who caught it over his head, arching backwards.  Watch the catch – HERE  Talking about the match, Young Ayush Mhatre once again reminded everyone that he is one for the future with a 20-ball 43 that helped Chennai Super Kings huff and puff to a modest 187 for eight against Rajasthan Royals. MS Dhoni’s team could have been in deeper trouble had Dewald Brevis (42) and Shivam Dube (39) not prevented the innings from falling apart. Dhoni himself could manage only a sedate 16 off 17, failing to provide a late flourish. …

Fan wars in Indian cricket isn’t uncommon. Every now and then, fan groups of one cricketer get into debates with the fan groups of other cricketers. In India, cricketers are like Gods, with fan armies that exude unparalleled passion for the player and the game. However, former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh made quite a controversial statement, as he suggested that the only Indian cricketer, at present, who has ‘real fans’ is former India captain Chennai Super Kings’ ‘Thala’ MS Dhoni. Harbhajan’s comment came as the IPL 2025 season neared its resumption with the Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Kolkata Knight Riders match on Saturday. During a chat on JioStar, Harbhajan triggered a controversy as he suggested that Dhoni’s fans are real while the number of other players’ fans also include a ‘paid’ component. “If any cricketer has real fans, it’s Dhoni.

Tom Moody doesn’ see the same spark in MS Dhoni that has been visible in the past.© BCCI Amid uncertainity over MS Dhoni‘s playing future, former SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) head coach Tom Moody has made a big remark, claiming that he doesn’t see the same spark in the veterean that has been visible in the past. Dhoni’s form has been a huge topic of debate, especially with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) failing to qualify for the IPL playoffs in back-to-back seasons. Moody pointed out how Dhoni has been pivotal in CSK’s success in the previous seasons, but even he has not been able to inspire the five-time champions. “Every team is a mirror of their leaders, and he is such a significant leader, and has been for so long. We all have a fire inside of us, and at times we need to recognise when that is starting to flicker, and if not, go out,” former Sunrisers Hyderabad coach Tom Moody said on ESPN Cricinfo’s ‘TimeOut’ show. “I just don’t know whether …

File image of MS Dhoni.© BCCI/Sportzpics Talk surrounding MS Dhoni and retirement crops every now and then, and is a frequent topic of discussion during the Indian Premier League. However, it appears that Dhoni’s chapter with Chennai Super Kings (CSK) is far from done. As per reports, Dhoni is unlikely to retire after IPL 2025. The 43-year-old is presently captaining CSK after an injury ruled Ruturaj Gaikwad out for the rest of IPL 2025. Dhoni has revealed that he does not know yet whether it’s his last season, but reports suggest that he is set to continue. As per a report by Times of India, franchise insiders at CSK are confident that Dhoni is set to continue even beyond IPL 2025, and well into his mid-forties. According to the report, there are far too many loose ends to deal with within the team in order to let MS Dhoni walk away at this stage. It is important to note that CSK are once again going through a transition phase. The franchise has received …

“A Team Who Did Not Love…”: Ex-England Captain Pinpoints Big Difference Between MS Dhoni And Virat Kohli

“Shocked and sad” at Virat Kohli’s sudden retirement from the longest format, former England skipper Michael Vaughan said no individual has done more for Test cricket than the star Indian batter. Kohli announced his retirement from Test cricket on Monday, drawing the curtain on a stellar red-ball career. He represented India in 123 Tests, scoring 9,230 runs at an average of 46.85, including 30 centuries. “There are not too many Test retirements where I am left genuinely disappointed that I won’t watch a cricketer play again. But I’m sad we won’t see Virat Kohli in England this summer or in whites any more,” Vaughan wrote in his column for the Telegraph. “I’m shocked that he’s retiring now, and I’m also quite sad about it. In my time involved in the game, stretching back more than 30 years, I don’t believe there is any individual who has done more for the Test format than Virat.” Kohli led India to 40 wins in 68 Tests — the most by any Indian skipper to date — …

Australian batting great Greg Chappell feels Virat Kohli’s Test retirement “marks the end of a thunderous era” in which he managed to “eclipse” the great Sachin Tendulkar in terms of making a cultural and psychological impact on India’s cricketing identity. Writing in his column for ‘ESPNCricinfo’, Chappell, a former India head coach said Kohli’s over a decade long career in the format that began in 2011, was a “reign forged in grit, fire, and audacity.” “It closes the chapter on the most transformative figure in Indian cricket since Sachin Tendulkar; perhaps Kohli even eclipses him in terms of cultural influence and psychological impact on India’s cricketing identity,” Chappell wrote. “Kohli, the incandescent heart of Indian cricket for over a decade, did not just score runs. He redefined expectations, challenged conventions, and symbolised the self-assured, unapologetic India of the 21st century,” he added. The 36-year-old Kohli announced his retirement on Monday, declaring that he is walking away with a heart full of gratitude even though it was not an easy decision to make. “Virat …

MS Dhoni greeted Chetan Sakariya© X (Twitter) Chennai Super Kings registered a surprising two-wicket victory over Kolkata Knight Riders in their IPL 2025 match on Wednesday at the Eden Gardens. Asked to bowl first, CSK restricted KKR to 179/6 in 20 overs with spinner Noor Ahmad scalping four wickets. Later, CSK lost some wickets in the middle but skipper MS Dhoni and Shivam Dube‘s partnership helped him seal a consolidatory win as they are already out of the playoffs contention. On the other hand, this defeat proved to be really costly for KKR as their chances of qualification are all but over. During the customary handshake after the match, MS Dhoni stole the limelight with his sweet gesture towards KKR pacer Chetan Sakariya. As the players were busy shaking hands, Dhoni realised that he accidently skipped Sakariya during his turn.  To make it up, Dhoni went back and shook hands with the young pacer and also gave him a pat on his back. This gesture from Dhoni left Sakariya surprised as he acknowledged …
