CSK doors will remain open as long as dhoni wants..!?
No matter how many more years dhoni wants to play in the IPL series, all those years are for CSK. The team's CEO kasi Viswanathan said that the doors will remain open. Similarly, regarding retention, he said that they have retained both the players shivam dube and Pathirana who have played well in the past seasons. CSK has retained 5 players namely Ruturaj Gaikwad, ravindra Jadeja, shivam dube, Pathirana, and Dhoni. The CSK team has spent Rs 65 crore in purse for this. As a result, the CSK team has to meet the mega auction to be held on the 24th and 25th with Rs.55 crores.
 Similarly, fans have also wondered how dhoni wanted to play for one more season. CSK CEO kasi Viswanathan said that CSK always wants to retain a core team. In that way, this time the CSK team management consulted both captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and dhoni regarding retention. Likewise, we were clear that CSK should respect the players who helped them to develop to the next level. Because it is because of them that the CSK team has achieved consistent growth. So there was no consultation regarding the retention of both Ruturaj and Jadeja. Everyone knows very well that both will be retained. Similarly, shivam Dubey was groomed by CSK. In other words, dhoni was the reason for his development.
So we thought he should continue in the CSK team. Lastly, Pathirana is a man who can contribute immensely to whichever team he goes to. So we retained him. While paying huge amounts to these 4 players, we knew very well that the mega auction would not be enough. Because a lot of quality indian players are coming in the mega auction. We acted knowing that there would be no purse money to buy the best players among them. But we are sure to get some quality players in the mega auction. As for dhoni, he always makes his decision at the last moment. He has already said that his last match will be at chepauk Stadium. But he said that as long as the CSK team wants and as long as dhoni wants to play, the doors of the chennai team will remain open.
