Suryakumar Yadav excited about facing MS Dhoni again

Suryakumar Yadav shared his excitement about facing MS Dhoni in the IPL 2025. During a press conference, he laughed when asked about containing Dhoni, humorously calling him an "uncapped player." This title comes from a new BCCI rule allowing retired players like Dhoni to be categorized as uncapped, affecting how much the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) pay to retain him. Suryakumar, who is leading Mumbai Indians, highlighted the challenge Dhoni poses. He acknowledged the impact Dhoni has had on many players over the years and expressed his eagerness to face him again. After the question about Dhoni, he jokingly remarked on his "uncapped" status before laughing. The new rule means that if a franchise wants to keep a mix of players, they can retain an uncapped player like Dhoni for ₹4 crore, much lower than his previous salary. Dhoni himself has expressed his commitment to CSK, saying, "I can play for as long as I want for CSK." In their recent match, CSK defeated Mumbai Indians by four wickets. Mumbai struggled early, losing three wickets quickly. New player Khaleel Ahmed made an impact by dismissing Rohit Sharma for a duck. CSK had a strong start, with Ruturaj Gaikwad scoring a fast fifty, helping his team secure the win.
