CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan sheds light on discussions regarding MS Dhoni’s successor within the franchise. Owner N Srinivasan defers the decision to the captain and coach. Dhoni, confirming his presence for another season, spearheads Chennai Super Kings’ charge in IPL 2024 post knee surgery.
However, amid speculation about Dhoni’s future, CSK eyes a potential successor for captaincy. Viswanathan emphasizes Srinivasan’s stance, stating decisions will rest with the coach and captain.

Viswanathan highlights their consistent focus on qualifying for knockouts, echoing Dhoni’s mantra of concentrating on league games first. With pressure comes experience, as CSK maintains composure owing to their track record.
The season opener against Royal Challengers Bangalore at MA Chidambaram Stadium awaits CSK on March 22. Amidst discussions and preparations, the Men in Yellow aim to continue their legacy of formidable performances in the IPL.
