With legendary MS Dhoni passing the leadership to Ruturaj Gaikwad, the match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Chennai will not only mark the start of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 but also a new era for the reigning champions. It appears that Dhoni made the unexpected decision to retire one day before the new season began in order to ensure a seamless transition. Dhoni is set to retire at the end of this one.
Even the Mumbai Indians, who have won five IPL trophies, have not been able to occupy the position occupied by the Super Kings, who have won five titles already. The Royal Challengers, on the other hand, will be excited to add an IPL championship to their collection after just winning their first title in the Women's Premier League.
