Shoaib Akhtar makes huge claim about MS Dhoni's IPL future: ‘He can do any odd stuff’

Ms. Dhoni has reached the twilight of her cricket career, but still remains one of the smartest administrators in the industry. He started the current season as a butcher from the goal and handed over the duties of Captain Chennai Super Kings (CSK) Ravindra Jadeja. But with the defending champions trying to find their mojo, an experienced cricketer was asked to return to the helm.

With Dhoni still proving to be a valuable asset to the Chennai unit, the question of his future in the franchise is highly threatened by who would really like their beloved captain to continue in the next season.

At the start of the debate, former Pakistani express Shoaib Akhtar believed that the CSK captain would play another season before hanging his boots from franchise cricket.

“He is MS Dhoni. Can’t really predict what he does. He can do any odd stuff. He is known for doing that. He’s a great guy. We all love him and respect him. Personally, though, I reckon he will play another season before he calls it a day. Or again, he might be part of the management,” the ex-Pakistan cricketer told Sportskeeda.

He also shared his views on the CSK's inconsistent campaign, whose hopes for the playoffs hang in the balance.

“Since the IPL started, Chennai have rarely been knocked out early. They make an impression almost every season. But there are too many cooks in the kitchen for CSK this time. They need time to regroup. It’s too late this season. They have to come back next year with some clear thinking and a clear mind. You win matches off the field, in the dressing room. On the field, you only put-up performances,” he added.
