During the 2025 Indian Premier League, MS Dhoni reportedly said that he is available to don the yellow jersey. Sources claim that Kasi Viswanathan, the team's CEO, confirmed the details and conveyed the joy of the CSK family at witnessing 'Thala' MSD in yet another IPL season.
This time around, the IPL has permitted clubs to keep up to six players, of whom no more than two may be uncapped and no more than five may be capped. The six players can be purchased back via Right-to-Match (RTM) options at the auction, retained outright prior to the auction, or a combination of both.
IPL 2025: The BCCI is cautious about India's workload, thus there won't be an increase in the number of matches. Like the previous three seasons, there will be 74 matches in the 2025 Indian Premier League. However, when the broadcast rights for the 2023–27 cycle were sold, the IPL mentioned 84 matches in 2022; that span is ten fewer.
Before the IPL 2025 super auction, how many players were kept? The 10 teams have spent a total of Rs 558.5 million on the retention of 46 players.
