IPL 2025: MS Dhoni is just not an everyday cricketer, he is a legend and an icon. At 43, he still has a lot of relevance for Chennai Super Kings and that was another reason why he was retained. The former CSK captain has been a serial match-winner for his side over the years and happens to be one of the few cricketers to be playing IPL since it's inception in 2008.

Will Dhoni Promote Himself up The Order? 

Now as he gears up for another season of the IPL, the spotlight would be on him and it would also be interesting to see where he slots in to bat. Will he promote himself up the order, something he has not over the past few seasons? Dhoni would be eyeing many feats this year. 

RECORDS IN DHONI'S RADAR IN IPL 2025

CSK's Highest Run-Getter: It is no secret that Dhoni is not a stat-padder, yet there are a few milestones he would have in his cusp. Dhoni has scored 4,669 runs for CSK and is only second to legendary Suresh Raina. With Raina not playing anymore, Dhoni has a golden chance of edging his former teammate and becoming the highest run-scorer in the history of CSK. 

Raina has amassed 4,687 runs and is the current leading run-scorer for CSK. All Dhoni needs is 18 more runs to go past Raina. 

Oldest Half-Centurion in IPL: Dhoni is 43 and that provides him the golden opportunity to become the oldest in the history of IPL to get to a fifty. He comes in a tad-bit late in the order, bhut he surely has the capability of smashing a quickfire fifty in IPL 2025.

Double Century as Wicketkeeper: Dhoni is a livewire behind the stumps. He has the unique capability of changing the course of games from behind the stumps. In all probability, he will again be donning the gloves. And he also has the golden opportunity to become the first to take 200 catches as a wicketkeeper. He is on 190 and needs 10 more.
