In a recent discussion, MS Dhoni elaborated on his experience of playing cricket in India and, in particular, the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. He also thanked the supporters for their incredible support over the past few years.
In the same interaction, when asked about his “second favourite venue” other than the home venue of Chennai Super Kings, the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Dhoni expressed that he did not have anything of that nature. However, he did share that he had a “soft corner” for Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium and the city in general.
“Mumbai, I have a soft corner because in 2007 when we won the T20 World Cup, when we came back over here, we got a verry warm reception. (The) 2011 (Cricket World Cup) final was over here, and there have been memories. So, it has a special place in my heart,” shared Dhoni in a conversation with JioHotstar.

Dhoni has been the linchpin of the Men in Yellow since the inception of the IPL. He has won five titles with the franchise as their skipper. As far as IPL 2025 is concerned, Dhoni is playing as an “uncapped player”, after being amongst the five players to be retained by CSK ahead of the mega auction in November 2024.
