IPL 2024: MS Dhoni Steps Down As CSK Captain & This Indian Player Is The New Skipper

CSK fans are currently in a state of shock as their Thala, MS Dhoni has given up the captaincy and as per the latest reports, the young Indian cricketer Ruturaj Gaikwad has been appointed as the new skipper of the Chennai franchise. 

The IPL 2024 is going to start tomorrow with CSK and RCB clashing against each other in the opening match and it won’t be wrong to say that it will be the start of a new era as MS Dhoni has led CSK since the inaugural edition of 2008. 

However, something similar has happened in the IPL 2022 as well when Ravindra Jadeja was appointed as the new skipper by the management just before the start of the tournament but after tasting defeat in some matches, the management requested MSD to reconsider his decision and come back as the skipper of the team. 

At that time, Mahi agreed and took over captaincy and in the next season (IPL 2023), he led the team to its fifth IPL win. 

Ruturaj Gaikwad was termed as MS Dhoni’s successor by many former Indian cricketers but this has happened quite unexpectedly. 

Will Ruturaj Gaikwad succeed as the CSK skipper? What do you think?
