Will Dhoni really say goodbye to the IPL? As we all know, the IPL schedule is out, and the first match will be played between the defending champion Gujarat Titans and the four-time champion Chennai Super Kings on March 31st at 7:30 PM at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. But ever since the schedule has arrived, the only question running rampant among all the cricket and Dhoni fans is: will Dhoni really play his last match of this season against KKR on May 14th? We will find out how much truth there is in this question in this article.
Will Dhoni really play his last IPL match on May 14th?
In fact, all the cricket experts and fans are speculating that Dhoni will play his last IPL this year. Dhoni’s last match has also been published by many news sites, which is going to be against Kolkata on 14th May. Because during an interview, Dhoni had said that whenever my last match would be at Chepauk’s M. A. Chidambaram Stadium. Since the last match of CSK is going to be held on 14th May against KKR at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, everyone is expecting that this will be their last match.
But if the CSK team qualifies for the playoffs, then Dhoni will not leave his team halfway through the tournament. And only Dhoni knows what is going on in Dhoni’s mind. We all have seen him retiring from Test or ODI (International Cricket), and no one was aware of the news, and even his fellow teammates were shocked by the news of his retirement. So don’t pay too much attention to all the articles telling Dhoni’s last match is on 14th May. We all just hope that Dhoni and Dhoni’s team Chennai Super Kings do well this year.
