The Ranchi-born cricketer was visibly disheartened as the Super Kings were eliminated from IPL 2024 following a defeat to the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in their final league game. Needing 201 to qualify for the playoffs, the match seemed within the Yellow Army's reach as they required 11 runs off 5 deliveries.

However, Yash Dayal's dismissal of Dhoni led to a 27-run victory for RCB. The loss has raised questions about Dhoni's future in the IPL, but the CSK CEO has confirmed that the veteran will indeed return for the 2025 edition.
