After winning IPL 2023, CSK captain MS Dhoni revealed that he had cried in his side’s tournament opener against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedbad.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MS Dhoni is a man of very few expressions but a lot of words, at least in the post-match interactions. Ever since he decided not to attend press conferences before or after a match, the only time Dhoni can be heard talking serious cricket is either at the toss or after the match to the broadcasters. No one is complaining though as the Chennai Super Kings captain has been speaking his heart out every time has had the microphone in his hand in\u00a0IPL 2023<\/a>. He, however, reserved the best for the final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Ravindra Jadeja hit a six and a four<\/a> when CSK needed 10 runs off 2 balls in the last over to complete an incredible heist, giving Chennai a record-equalling fifth title, the biggest question was – Have we seen the last of Dhoni on the cricket field? Till the halfway mark of the tournament, there were no doubts that this was Dhoni’s last year as a player in the IPL but things slowly started to change when the legendary cricketer dropped subtle hints of thinking about turning for another season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After winning IPL 2023 beating Gujarat Titans in the final, Dhoni confirmed that\u00a0it’s not curtains on his playing career yet<\/a>. He will give himself 6-7 months and then decide on his future as CSK captain. This, he said, was a small return gift from his side to the fans for the love and appreciation he has received at every venue he has played this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That, believe it or not, was the only piece of news Dhoni provided late on Monday night. He also revealed that he cried before CSK’s tournament opener against GT at the same venue. Dhoni started off IPL 2023 by playing against GT in Ahmedabad on March 31 this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
