MS Dhoni is playing in the ongoing 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. While the former Indian skipper looks far away from retiring, the fans have been speculating if Dhoni will be playing after the ongoing edition of the IPL. Virender Sehwag and Kevin Pietersen also shared their thoughts on the matter. MS Dhoni’s potential retirement up in the air and now CSK batting coach Mike Hussey has weighed in on the matter.
Michael Hussey talks about MS Dhoni’s possible retirement after 2023 IPL season
Hussey, who had previously played alongside Dhoni, believes that Dhoni could still continue with the yellow outfit.
41-year-old Dhoni is has had a storied career and in the later stages of the career. However, CSK’s batting coach Mike Hussey stated that the skipper appears in great touch and that he couldn’t find a reason why he should not continue beyond the current season.
“That is the thing we have not spoken about. Whether he is playing his last IPL or not only he knows. We have no idea. He is hitting sixes and finishing off games. From my point of view as a batting coach, he is still batting really well. He is still motivated to keep coming into the training and working on his game, he is hitting the ball well,” Hussey told in a pre-match conference.
“We have seen him lighting up the innings and finish things off really well. He has still got that six-hitting ability. So, while he is enjoying it and still contributing to the team, then there is no reason why he cannot keep going, maybe for another 5 years (chuckles)… we do not know it is all up to MS,” he added.
Chennai will face Delhi Capitals in the afternoon game on Saturday, May 20 at the latter’s backyard in Delhi. A win in that fixture would ensure CSK a playoff berth and provided Lucknow Super Giants don’t win their last clash by a big margin, CSK would enter into the playoffs as the second-placed side.
