New Delhi.The current season of the Indian Premier League may be in full swing, but with its conclusion, cricket fans may have to face a big crisis. Amidst all the speculations, the possibility of many veteran players saying goodbye to this prestigious league has become strong. The most prominent name in this list is that of former Chennai Super Kings captain and brand icon Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

This season of Dhoni, who was an integral part of the team, was very disappointing. Due to injury or team composition, he could not take the field to play a single match throughout the season.

The 44-year-old wicketkeeper-batsman sitting on the bench like this is a clear indication that announcing his retirement is just a matter of time.

At the same time, this season has been no less than a nightmare for the current captain of Kolkata Knight Riders, Ajinkya Rahane. The bat of the 37-year-old experienced batsman remained silent throughout this season, due to which questions are also being raised on his captaincy. Due to his continuous poor form, it is believed that Rahane may stay away from this league considering the future.

Another big name in this series is that of fast bowler Ishant Sharma. Gujarat Titans included this experienced player in their team, but he did not get a chance to play a single match in the entire tournament. Due to being continuously neglected, it is almost certain for Ishant to take the decision of retirement after this season.

It is noteworthy that the conclusion of IPL 2026 may prove to be the last stop in the career of many legends, after which the dominance of the new generation players will be seen in the league.
