1. MS Dhoni
What Sachin Tendulkar is to Mumbai, Sourav Ganguly is to Kolkata, MS Dhoni is the same to Chennai. He was born in Ranchi but Chennai adopted him and made him their Thala! He was CSK’s first recruit during the 2008 mega-auction and since then, there was not even the slightest doubt of looking beyond Dhoni. He was made the captain and the keeper-batter elevated CSK to newer heights, helping them win five titles.
Notably, Dhoni has played 234 matches for CSK and won 137 of them. He has scored 4669 runs for the franchise and is their second-leading run-scorer in history. Apart from that, the 43-year-old also holds the record for most dismissals (190), played most matches as captain (133), and is the player with the most wins (152) in the competition history.
The veteran has been retained for IPL 2025 as well. He has been registered in the uncapped category for INR 4 crore and will be hoping to win more titles to become the player with the most IPL trophies in history. He is two short of the iconic number seven.
