Fans were thrilled to see the beloved cricketer in a new, playful avatar. Despite being fully covered in the Santa suit, Dhoni’s identity was easy to recognize, thanks to a hat with his nickname “Mahi” embroidered on it. Even though Dhoni has stepped away from international cricket, he remains one of the most iconic sports figures in India. His appearances, whether in a Santa Claus costume or showcasing a new hairstyle, never fail to excite his massive fanbase. MS Dhoni’s IPL Return While Dhoni no longer plays international cricket, he continues to shine in the Indian Premier League (IPL). He is set to return for IPL 2025, representing Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Though Dhoni was retained by CSK for Rs 4 crore, he no longer captains the team. That responsibility has been passed on to opener Ruturaj Gaikwad. CSK made several smart moves in the auction, securing players like New Zealand's Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra at competitive prices. Additionally, veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who recently retired from international cricket, will also rejoin CSK for the 2025 season. for more updates follow ANN MEDIA on facebook , X , Instagram and Linkedin
