Twitter reacts after MS Dhoni stepped down as a CSK Skipper

GOAT MS Dhoni has decided to step down as a CSK Skipper, yes you hear it right, you will never see him again at the time of Toss and Post Match Presentation. END OF AN ERA! Yes folks it’s happening, he’s leaving captaincy but he will continue as a player. Arguably the greatest and one of the most successful captains of all time in the IPL. MS Dhoni handed over the CSK captaincy to none other than Ravindra Jadeja. It’s absolutely shocking news for MSD’s fans but at the same time, CSK fans are hoping that SIR Jadeja will Continue Dhoni’s Legacy like the way THALA took the yellow flag forward.

It clearly indicates that IPL 2022 could be his last season as a player as well. As fans, we are not able to digest this but we want to see him play as long as he can whether as a player or skipper. But Somewhere deep inside everyone knows that all good things come to an end.

No Mr. IPL (Suresh Raina), No Universe Boss (Chris Gayle), No Mr 360* (Ab de Villers), MS Dhoni & Virat Kohli no longer captains, This IPL is not the same anymore.

Here are the stats under MS Dhoni’s Leadership.

– One of the most successful teams in the IPL franchise

CSK insider said to Cricinfo, “there were never big discussions with MS Dhoni. He decides and we agree to it. He said he’s 40 and can’t play forever. The management always backed him to the hilt, why will it not back his decision now”.

It’s interesting to see how Sir Jadeja will handle pressure situations like the way MS Dhoni used to do. It was Dhoni who back Jadeja when he was new to the team, there was a time when people used to criticize him a lot due to his average performance, But Dhoni kept his belief in him. Jaddu has also proved him right by his 3D performances in All 3 formats, His stats show that he is the No 1 all-rounder at the moment across all formats of the game.

Jadeja maybe CSK skip but he doesn’t make it along with the 9 other IPL captains – MS Dhoni does. That’s your Tata IPL promo ad, full page front TOI.
