Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has indicated that he would be wearing his favourite yellow jersey for at least one more season and the ‘Whistle Podu’ army will certainly see him playing a “farewell game” at their beloved Chepauk.

Dhoni, on Tuesday, for the first time dropped elaborate hints that he will be seen playing next season as CSK is set to go through a big transition phase post the mega auction.

“When it comes to farewell, you can still come and see me play for CSK and that can be my farewell game. So, you will still get that opportunity to bid me farewell. Hopefully, we will come to see Chennai and play my last game over there and we can meet fans there (Chepauk),” Dhoni said while interacting with fans during the 75th year celebrations of India Cements held virtually.

If sources are to be believed, then CSK will be retaining three players — skipper Dhoni, all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and prolific opener Ruturaj Gaikwad for the next auctions.

About CSK as a team holding its nerves in crunch situations, Dhoni said they try to prepare for the opposition they would be up against.

“We are a process-driven team, we believe in the process and we know that if we follow the process if we execute the plans well, if we do the small things right, we will get the desired result, we know the result is a byproduct and that also keeps us calm,” he added.

The CSK captain also stressed on the importance of living in the moment.

“We live in the moment and enjoy each other’s company. We know that if we play to our potential, we can beat the opposition.”
