MS Dhoni can be seen playing for Chennai for the last time in the second phase of IPL 2021 starting from 19th September.
Ever since Mahendra Singh Dhoni announced his retirement from international cricket, there has been speculation as to who will replace him as the captain of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the IPL. MS Dhoni can be seen playing for Chennai for the last time in the second phase of IPL 2021 starting from 19th September. In such a situation, the question has intensified that who can replace this great captain in the CSK team.
In a fascinating social media interaction, Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja expressed his desire to take charge of CSK after Dhoni retires. However, Jadeja soon deleted his tweet.
Who will be the captain of Chennai Super Kings after Dhoni?
A CSK fan page on Twitter asked who should captain the South India team in the coming season after Dhoni's retirement. In response to this question, Jadeja mentioned the number of his jersey and typed the number 8 in the comment section of the post.
The Gujarat-born batsman immediately deleted his comment, but it was too late as the screenshots had already been captured. Jadeja is widely regarded as one of the most prolific all-rounders in the world, and his ability to single-handedly affect the game makes him a safe bet for CSK.
Jadeja has played a total of 191 matches in the IPL since his debut in 2008. The all-rounder has scored 2,290 runs at an average of 26.62 and has taken 120 wickets at 30.25. Jadeja's best season with the bat for CSK came in 2020 when he scored 232 runs at an average of 46.40 and a strike rate of 171.85. In the 2021 edition, Jadeja has already scored 131 runs in 7 matches at an average of 131.00.
