'MS Dhoni might say himself not to retain him'- Aakash Chopra

Earlier, cricketer-turned-commentator Aakash Chopra on his YouTube channel guesstimating the list of players who might be retained said that Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be retaining skipper MS Dhoni at first. However, the commentator also said that MS Dhoni might himself say not to retain him to the CSK franchise. "Chennai Super Kings will have MS Dhoni at the first number of course and they will do that as well. But if you ask Dhoni, he might himself say why they are retaining him because he may not be there for three years and why they want to block so much money on him. But then, that's how it is going to be. CSK and MS Dhoni are pretty much one and the same thing."

MS Dhoni announced his retirement from international cricket in August 2020. The only competitive cricket that 39-year-old veteran has played after the 2019 World Cup has been the IPL.
