Chennai Super Kings (CSK) concluded IPL 2025 at the bottom of the points table, marking their poorest performance in franchise history. MS Dhoni, who resumed captaincy after Ruturaj Gaikwad's injury, faced criticism for his diminished impact, notably batting as low as No. 9. Former India spinner Murali Kartik opined that Dhoni has "overstayed his welcome" and should consider retirement to avoid being pushed out. Kartik emphasized the importance of allowing Gaikwad to continue as captain, suggesting that leadership transitions should be respected. Despite an 83-run victory against Gujarat Titans in their final match, CSK's overall season was disappointing, leading to calls for significant changes ahead of the next season. (PC: PTI)
