MS Dhoni Salary IPL 2025: Clear picture of retention before IPL 2025 mega auction. Teams will now be able to retain a total of 6 players. It will include one uncapped and five capped players. Talking about Mahendra Singh Dhoni (MS Dhoni), Chennai Super Kings can retain him as an uncapped player. If this happens then Dhoni will suffer a loss of crores. The reason for this is that the price of uncapped players has been fixed at Rs 4 crore.
Actually, a new rule has come for Indian players in IPL. If a capped player has not played a single international match in the last five years then he can be considered an uncapped player. Along with this, they should not have any agreement with the Board of Control for Cricket in India. So Dhoni fits on this scale. Chennai Super Kings can take him as an uncapped player.
If Dhoni plays as an uncapped player, he may suffer a loss of crores of rupees. Dhoni was retained by CSK last season. His salary from 2022 is Rs 12 crore. Now Rs 4 crore can be given to the uncapped players retained this season. In this way Dhoni will suffer a loss of Rs 8 crore.
Players are going to get a lot of benefits in IPL 2025. After being sold in the auction, he will also get a fee for every match. This will be different from the contract amount. Each player will be paid Rs 7.5 lakh for a match. BCCI has decided to continue the Impact Player rule till 2027.
Let us tell you that this time the auction of teams' purses has also been extended. Now the teams will have Rs 120 crore. It may increase again next year.
