Adding fuel to the fire, some sharp-eyed fans noticed Dhoni’s wife Sakshi whispering “last match” to their daughter Ziva—sparking further debate on whether the legendary captain was playing his final IPL season.
However, Dhoni has now put those rumours to rest—at least for now. Speaking candidly, he assured fans that he isn’t hanging up his boots just yet. The 43-year-old said he is taking his IPL journey one season at a time and will assess his physical condition before deciding on his future.
“I’m still playing IPL. I’ve kept it simple—one year at a time. I’m 43 now, and by the end of IPL 2025, I’ll be 44. I’ll take about 8-10 months to see how my body responds. It’s not me who decides—it’s my body that does,” Dhoni explained during the podcast.
So, while fans may have feared a farewell, Dhoni has made it clear that the final decision is still months away—and not yet written in stone.

Angkrish Raghuvanshi: Rising Cricket Star Making India Proud
Angkrish Raghuvanshi, a promising right-handed top-order batsman, has been making significant strides in Indian cricket. At just 21 years old, he played a crucial 17-ball 22-run innings for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the IPL 2025 season.
Raghuvanshi first gained prominence during the 2022 Under-19 World Cup in the Caribbean, where he was India’s highest run-scorer, amassing 278 runs in six innings and helping the team secure the trophy. Despite a two-ball duck in the final against England, his overall performance was noteworthy.
Originally from Delhi, he relocated to Mumbai at the age of 11 to train under renowned coaches Abhishek Nayar and Omkar Salvi, eventually settling there permanently.
In the 2023-24 domestic season, Raghuvanshi made his List A and T20 debuts for Mumbai. Ahead of IPL 2024, KKR acquired him for ₹20 lakh. Recognizing his potential, KKR re-signed him for ₹3 crore in the IPL 2025 auction, a substantial increase from his previous contract.
With his elegant stroke play and solid temperament, Angkrish Raghuvanshi continues to be a valuable asset for KKR and a rising star in Indian cricket.
KKR vs RR: Head-to-Head
KKR aur RR ab tak IPL me 20 baar takkar le chuke hain. Dono teams ne 14-14 matches jeete hain, jabki 2 matches ka koi result nahi nikla. Inme se ek match, jo IPL 2024 me tha, radd ho gaya tha.
Guwahati me Rajasthan Royals (RR) ne 2023 se kuch matches khele hain, lekin yahaan unka record kuch khaas nahi raha. Teen matches me se do haare hain, aur ek washed out ho gaya. Par Wednesday ka din alag hoga, kyunki local ladka Riyan Parag team ka captain banne ja raha hai – Assam aur uske liye ek historic moment.
Parag ke liye yeh match asaan nahi hoga, khas kar jab RR ne Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) ke against ek record-breaking total concede kar diya tha. Sanju Samson, Dhruv Jurel, Shimron Hetmyer aur naye player Shubham Dubey ne batting me dum dikhaya, par bowlers ne bahut runs diye, jisse Parag ke paas options kam pad gaye. Team ko ek solid fifth ya sixth bowler ki zaroorat hai jo batting ka balance bhi maintain kare. Wanindu Hasaranga ko include karna ya khud bowling karna Parag ke liye solutions ho sakte hain.
Dusri taraf, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) ne Royal Challengers Bangalore se apna pehla match haara, par apni strategy par bane rahenge. Unki lower-middle order, jisme Venkatesh Iyer, Andre Russell, Rinku Singh aur Ramandeep Singh shamil hain, pehle match me flop rahi.
