We have observed some things carefully and have learned a lot of positive points from them. Inshallah we will defeat Australia in Australia. We are all ready for the upcoming challenges: Mohammad Rizwan The experienced player further said, ‘There is Champions Trophy next year and we also have our eyes on ICC T20 World Cup 2026.

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.

A report is also coming out that Prithvi Shaw’s body fat is more than 35%. You can also see Sarfaraz Khan: Sunil Gavaskar Giving the example of Sarfaraz Khan, Sunil Gavaskar said, ‘Sarfaraz Khan batted brilliantly and scored 150 runs in the first Test match played in Bengaluru.

MI can retain these players including Hardik, Bumrah – Harbhajan Singh made a big prediction

The performance of Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024 was very disappointing. Hardik Pandya, Harbhajan Singh and Rohit Sharma. (Image Source: Instagram) Team India’s former veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh has asked which players can Mumbai Indians (MI) retain before the mega auction of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season? Discussed this. Mumbai India’s performance in the last three seasons was not good. Rohit Sharma was the captain for two seasons and Hardik Pandya was the captain last season, but the team still could not perform well. Now what will be the team’s strategy for the next three years? This will be decided by what decision the team takes in retention. However, meanwhile, Harbhajan expressed uncertainty about the franchise retaining former captain Rohit Sharma. However, he stressed that if the team decides to retain the fourth player, Rohit’s name should undoubtedly be there. Harbhajan Singh gave a big statement regarding MI’s IPL retention. Harbhajan Singh said in the Star Sports show, “Mumbai Indians is a team which has not performed well in the last two-three years. MI has been a champion team, a very good team, and as far as I know, they will definitely be thinking about building a team for the future, but that doesn’t mean they won’t add experienced players this year. . Last year they made Hardik Pandya the captain and I think he will definitely be retained. Jasprit Bumrah will also be retained and Suryakumar Yadav will also be retained.” Bhajji further said about Rohit Sharma, “However, the question is whether Rohit Sharma will be retained? He has just won the World Cup as captain, so I think he should be retained, and he will be retained. This will make four players and if there is a fifth player, then Tilak Verma will be retained. Tilak Verma is one of those players who will be very useful in winning matches for Mumbai Indians in the future.” He further said, “Talking about bowling, I don’t think they would like to retain anyone else apart from Bumrah, so Nehal Wadhera can be a good option for them as an uncapped player. That is why he should be selected.”

Former Chief Pitch Curator of MA Chidambaram Stadium K. Parthasarathy passed away

A sad news came out from Tamil Nadu cricket on Sunday. On Sunday, the famous former pitch curator of Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA) K. Parthasarathy passed away. The association expressed its condolences on his demise and remembered his significant contribution. Parthasarathy MA was the former chief pitch curator of Chidambaram Stadium and served from 1972 to 2013. He worked tirelessly with his team to ensure top class facilities and playing conditions for the MAC Stadium. Many cricket legends often praised the pitches prepared by Parthasarathy in a career spanning nearly five decades. In fact, he had a deep connection with cricket, as his father KS Kannan was a first class cricketer. Not only this, he was also a famous coach. According to the New Indian Express, the TNCA had duly acknowledged his contribution in developing Tamil Nadu cricket by honoring him during the final match of the 2020-21 edition of the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL). Pitch prepared for many memorable international cricket matches Parthasarathy had prepared pitches for many memorable international cricket matches during his career. He also brought some major improvements and techniques in preparing world class pitches. His ability can be judged from the fact that he used such a type of soil to prepare the pitch, which helps both the batsmen and the bowlers. He often used red clay and black clay to provide equal opportunities for players to showcase their different skills. Additionally, he also focused on creating a multi-layered pitch to ensure that the pitch provided uniform bounce and pace. He also took into account things that affect pitch preparation such as the role of temperature and humidity. Last but not least, he also showed his expertise in choosing the right type of grass for the surface and their appropriate growth, which resulted in close international matches.
