MS Dhoni says he can still put his body through \”six to eight months\” of hard work to be fit for the lucrative league. Chennai Super Kings retained Dhoni ahead of IPL 2025 auction. Dhoni said playing for the country was his biggest motivation in his career coming from a state, which isn’t known for the sport. \”For me, my biggest motivation was that contribution to make India win,\” said Dhoni at Garuda Aerospace’s ‘Ascend’ during the launch of Amaran Drone and Land Mine Detection Drone, on Friday. ‘I only play a couple of months in a year, but I want to enjoy it the way I started playing, that’s something that keeps me going,’ he said. ‘ IPL is one of the toughest tournaments. Nobody really cares about how old you are. If you’re playing at this level, the level needs to be the same,’ he added. ‘For me now, enjoying the game is the key aspect. When I’m out of the field, trying to be. the best kind of a person that I can be so that people remember me for (being) the good human being… so that’ssomething that I always had in my life (that) this is what I am in person’
