Popularly known as Thala (meaning 'leader' in Tamil), Dhoni had earlier sent speculation into overdrive by claiming that a "new role" awaits him in the "new season" in a viral social media post.
In 2023, the 42-year-old battled through a knee injury. He did manage to score 104 runs in 12 innings at a strike rate of 182.46, his best-ever in an IPL season.
The speculation is rife though that this IPL season will be the former India captain's final one as a player.
Chennai Super Kings start their IPL 2024 campaign with a home match against Royal Challengers Bangalore on March 22.
