Former India and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain MS Dhoni has stated that despite not playing cricket throughout the year, there is no "discount for age" when he plays in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Dhoni played for CSK in the ongoing IPL 2024, under the leadership of Ruturaj Gaikwad. His team crashed out of the playoffs race after a loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). Dhoni said that professional sport is not easy, and he has to be as fit as the other players.
