What Is MS Dhoni Up To After IPL 2025? Social Media Reveals All

The 18th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) proved to be a disappointing one for MS Dhoni. His team, Chennai Super Kings, not only failed to qualify for the playoffs but also finished at the bottom of the points table—marking their worst performance in IPL history.

Following CSK’s early exit, the 43-year-old legend returned to his hometown Ranchi. Since then, glimpses of his post-IPL downtime have surfaced on social media, offering fans a peek into his current lifestyle.

Bikes, Fishing & Simple Joys in Ranchi

Dhoni, known for his passion for motorcycles, has been seen enjoying bike rides on the streets of Ranchi. Several photos and videos have gone viral, capturing the former India captain riding his high-end motorcycles—adding to his reputation as a true bike enthusiast.

Another recent image showed Dhoni with a fishing rod in hand, holding a fish he had caught, indicating he’s making the most of his off-time with nature and hobbies.

Underwhelming IPL 2025 for Dhoni & CSK

The 2025 season was far from ideal for both Dhoni and CSK. After regular captain Ruturaj Gaikwad was ruled out mid-tournament due to injury, Dhoni stepped back into the leadership role. However, the change couldn’t spark a turnaround in form.

While the season didn’t go as planned, Dhoni seems to be taking it in stride—reconnecting with his passions and enjoying a quieter pace of life back home.
