MS Dhoni may have played in 2025, but the age is now affecting his career. It is believed that he can retire before IPL. In such a situation, CSK needs a leader who can handle the team by the next decade.

When Dhoni was out of the field, the responsibility of captaincy was given to Ruturaj Gaikwad. But the Gaekwad could not leave any significant impact as captain and the team’s performance was also average. That is why CSK is now looking for an experienced and strategic captain.

If everything is according to the plan, Sanju Samson can get CSK command in IPL 2026. Sanju, who brought Rajasthan to the finals in 2022, has proved that he can also captain it under pressure. After Dhoni, he can give CSK a stable leadership.

Recently, rumors of Samson going from RR to CSK are spreading on social media. If both sides agree on an agreement, this may be true. Fans are also very excited and curious about this possible change.
