The only common question MS Dhoni is listening since the last few years is regarding his continuation with IPL. The CSK captain retired from international cricket on 15 August 2020, but his association with IPL and CSK is still strong.

Every time MS Dhoni made it clear that he will continue his journey with Chennai Super Kings as a player and not retire anytime soon. He wants to play at least one season as he is hoping to play his last match in Chennai, among his team's city.
After CSK won the 2021 IPL trophy, Dhoni said that he will take the decision of retiring keeping in mind the needs of CSK at that time. IPL 2022 is going to be a bit different with new teams and the mega auction. N Srinivasan hinted that Dhoni is not leaving CSK so soon.

Dhoni said at an event hosted by CSK:
"I have always planned my cricket. The last ODI that I played in India was in Ranchi. Hopefully, my last T20 will be in Chennai. Whether it's next year or in five years' time, I don't know."
He further added, "The association started in 2008 when it comes to IPL, but it started before that when it came to play some of the other formats. "One of the most memorable being my Test debut, you know, which happened is in Chennai. I think I never knew that I'll be picked by CSK, I was in the auction and I got picked and it gave me an opportunity to understand the culture, which was very different from where I actually came from."
"And what made it even more different was I'm like a wanderer. My parents came from Uttar Pradesh. It was initially UP, then it became Uttarakhand. I was born in Ranchi which was Bihar. Then later on became Jharkhand. I got my job at the age of 18, with railways in West Bengal, you know, Kharagpur and then I came to Chennai and I believe Chennai taught me a lot. Tamil Nadu taught me a lot when it came to how to conduct myself, how to appreciate the game. Each and every game that we played at Chepauk the fans came and supported good cricket."
