The CSK ‘Thala’ had recently celebrated his 12th marriage anniversary with his wife Sakshi. According to reports, Dhoni’s family is in London where the CSK captain’s birthday would be celebrated.

As far as cricket is concerned, Dhoni was last seen playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. He was made the skipper again for CSK after Ravindra Jadeja gave up his captaincy back to MSD.

CSK had finished in the bottom half of the table and could not make it to the playoffs in 2022. Following CSK’s early exit, there were speculations over who would be leading the side in 2023, however, Dhoni put all speculations and rumours to rest.
