CSK Retained Players 2025: Chennai Super Kings is one of the eight teams to make their debut in the inaugural edition of the cash-rich league. The Chennai-based team has won a total of five IPL titles and has become the joint most successful team of the IPL tournament.
CSK failed to qualify for the playoffs last season as they managed to win only seven games out of the 14 league matches. Though RCB and CSK shared the same match wins, the NRR gave a boost to CSK’s rival team an edge and pushed them into the playoffs.
Updates:
- Dwayne Bravo parted ways with CSK and joined KKR as mentor for the IPL 2025 season.
CSK Retained Players 2025 with Released
According to the new IPL 2025 retention rules released by BCCI, each team can retain six players from their existing squad, either via retention or by using the Right to Match (RTM) option.
BCCI planned to host the IPL 2025 mega auction on November 24 and 25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia while teams announced their retained players list on 31 October 2024.
Though this year’s auction was planned to be hosted outside India, fans can still enjoy the IPL 2025 auction live streaming from their home.
As everyone knows, Chennai Super Kings will not release their key players ahead of the mega auction. To everyone’s surprise, the answer to ‘Will MS Dhoni Play Next IPL in 2025?‘ was answered by the franchise days ahead of the retention date.
If CSK decides to retain MS Dhoni, the former Indian skipper will receive a salary of only INR 4 crore as he will be considered as the uncapped Indian player as per the new rules.
CSK will also miss the service of Dwayne Bravo as the bowling coach for the next season. Ahead of the 2025 IPL, KKR roped in Dwayne Bravo as their mentor replacing Gautam Gambhir.
