In 2025, Rohit Sharma might lead CSK if MS Dhoni retires. Ambati Rayudu

In 2025, Ambati Rayudu, a former cricket player, wants Rohit Sharma to be a member of the Chennai Super Kings.

He also mentioned that the five-time champions in the lucrative league might be led by renowned cricketer MS Dhoni should he decide to retire from the game after the next season.

The Mumbai Indians have experienced a notable shift in their team dynamics since Hardik Pandya returned. The all-rounder was named the team’s new captain, and several players then posted cryptic posts on Instagram.

The issue intensified when Mark Boucher said that the opener hasn’t performed well with the bat in the last few editions and that the team chose to answer the call in order to relieve him of some stress. Rohit’s wife, Ritika Sajdeh, then called out Boucher’s remarks as deceptive. Neither the management nor any of the cricket players have commented on the matter since then.

Rayudu responded, “The captain of India can play IPL for at least five to six more years,” when he was questioned about the situation. Any side would be lucky to have a player of his caliber, he continued, adding that the star cricketer might sign with CSK for the upcoming season if he was not pleased.

For the next five to six years, Rohit Sharma can play in the IPL. The planet is his to captain if that is his desire. Anywhere he wants, he can captain with ease. When MS (Dhoni) retires, I want Rohit Sharma to play for CSK in 2025 because he can lead as well, Rayudu stated in an interview with News24.

The 36-year-old is anticipated to return to the Mumbai Indians camp following a brief vacation. He participated in all five of India’s Test matches against England, which India won 4-1 under his direction.

He is anticipated to take a week off, at the very least, before getting ready for the T20 fever because the IPL is scheduled to kick off in Chennai on March 22. On March 24, the Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians will square off at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium.
