 "I have eight or nine months to decide" On MS Dhoni Retirement Talks

MS Dhoni has finally answered all speculations on whether he has any plans to retire immediately after IPL 2023 or not. After guiding his beloved Chennai Super Kings to a record 10th IPL final with a win over defending champions Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 1 in Chennai on Tuesday, Dhoni was asked a clear question by renowned commentator Harsha Bhogle. "Will you come and play here in Chepauk again?" Dhoni was asked, referring to CSK's last match at home this season, with the final to be played in Ahmedabad on Sunday. Which, Dhoni did not give a straight reply but made it absolutely clear that he won't decide on his career right after the IPL ends.

"I don't know. I have eight or nine months to decide. The small auction will be around December, so why to take that headache right now? I have ample time to decide. I will always be there for CSK, whether it is in the playing form or sitting somewhere outside," MS Dhoni said in the post-match-presentation ceremony.

"Frankly, it takes a heavy toll. I have been out of form for literally four months now. Jan 31st was the time when I finished my work and started practicing from the 2nd-3rd of March. It takes a lot but I have ample time to decide."
