What has changed in MS Dhoni’s IPL salary in the last few years? Know complete details
There is sure to be a change in MS Dhoni’s salary in IPL 2025. MS Dhoni (Photo Source: Getty Images) MS Dhoni is one of those players who has participated in all the editions of the Indian Premier League. He became famous all over the world after leading the Indian team to the title in the 2007 T-20 World Cup. And Chennai Super Kings signed him for $1.5 million in the first edition of IPL. CSK made him the captain and the first three seasons were very good for the franchise. The team reached the final in 2008 and won in 2010. Before the 2011 auction, CSK announced Dhoni as their first retention. The franchise retained him for the next three years for $1.8 million. Dhoni shone this time too and after the retirement of Sachin Tendulkar, he became the poster boy of Indian cricket. By now he had become an integral part of the CSK franchise and Chennai Super Kings again announced Dhoni as their first retention ahead of the 2014 mega auction. After this, Dhoni earned Rs 12.5 every season till 2017. CSK may retain Dhoni as an uncapped player before 2025 mega auction However, there were doubts whether Dhoni would be CSK’s first retention ahead of the 2018 mega auction due to his advanced age. But the franchise showed confidence in him and named him as the first retention. In this way, for the next three years i.e. till 2021, Dhoni earned Rs 15 crore per season. After this, Chennai retained Dhoni, but in the interest of the team, he himself refused to accept the retention at first. That season, CSK declared Ravindra Jadeja as their first retention and he got Rs 15 crore. After this, Dhoni got Rs 12 crore as second retention. This was Dhoni’s salary till 2024 and it is expected to change in IPL 2025. There are reports that CSK may retain Dhoni as an uncapped player ahead of the 2025 mega auction. This means that the two-time World Cup winning captain will get Rs 4 crore. However, neither the franchise nor Dhoni has confirmed this. Now, official information will be revealed when CSK announces its retention on October 31.

T20 World Cup Semi Final Scenario: How can the Indian team reach the semi-finals of the tournament, know the complete equation
India has so far won two out of three matches in the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024. Team India Womens (Photo Source: So far 14 matches have been played in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup league stage and six matches are still to be played. However, even after 14 matches, the name of even a single team that will reach the semi-finals has not been cleared. The battle to reach the semi-finals is going on between three teams each in Group A and B. In Group A, India and New Zealand are in the race along with Australia. Australia is almost certain to reach the semi-finals as the team has not lost a single match in the tournament so far. In Group B, the race is going on between West Indies, South Africa and England. In such a situation, now there is a question in the mind of all the Indian fans that if India has to reach the semi-finals, then what will they have to do. So we give you the answer to this question. Under the captaincy of Harmanpreet Kaur, Team India has so far played three matches in the Women’s T20 World Cup, in which they have won two and lost one. India remains at the second position in the points table with 4 points and a net run rate of +0.576. Team India’s last match of the league stage is against defending champion Australia, which has been performing brilliantly so far in this tournament. The real challenge between India and the semi-finals is being given by New Zealand, which is at third position with 2 wins and one loss. New Zealand’s remaining two matches are against Sri Lanka and Pakistan. Team India ICC Womens T20 World Cup Semi Final Scenario: This is how India can reach the semi-finals If Team India wants to reach the semi-finals, then they will have to win their last match of the league stage against Australia at any cost. If the team is successful in doing this, they will get 6 points, after which their hopes of reaching the semi-finals will increase significantly. However, if New Zealand also wins both the remaining matches then it will also have 6 points and then the matter will come down to net run rate. On the other hand, if India has to face defeat at the hands of Australia, then they will have to pray that New Zealand loses at least one of its remaining two matches. Even after this the decision will be taken on the basis of net run rate. At present, India is far ahead of New Zealand in terms of net run rate. India’s net run rate is +0.576 and New Zealand’s is -0.050.
