Chennai Super Kings (CSK) once again performed brilliantly in IPL 2024 but missed a place in the playoffs. Now the team has started preparing for the next season. A mega auction will be held before IPL 2025. In such a situation, Chennai Super Kings will have to drop many players from their team. According to the current rule, only 4 players can be retained by any team. However, there is talk between BCCI and IPL teams about increasing this number and it is believed that the teams will get the freedom to retain a maximum of 6 players. Apart from this, 1 Right to Match (RTM) can also be available. RTM card is used during the auction.
Speculation about Dhoni intensifies
There is speculation about the retirement of former Chennai captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, which has raised many questions in the minds of fans and experts. However, the CSK team wants to keep Dhoni with them at any cost. Apart from him, CSK has many talented players who are the backbone of the team and can be retained for the next season. If IPL teams are given 6 options, then the Chennai team can retain these players.
Rituraj Gaikwad
Rituraj Gaikwad, who took over the captaincy after Dhoni, has performed brilliantly this season. He is one of the team’s most important batsmen, and it is very important to retain him. Rituraj has scored 2380 runs in 66 IPL matches. He has scored runs at an average of 41.75 and a strike rate of 136.86. Rituraj also has 2 centuries to his name.
