Ravindra Jadeja to lead CSK after MS Dhoni decides to step down

Dhoni wanted the leadership "transition to be smooth" and felt Jadeja was ready to take up the mantle for the team, which won its fourth IPL title last year. Viswanathan said that Dhoni had announced the decision on Thursday at the team meeting before the squad left for training - the defending champions will play the tournament opener against Kolkata Knight Riders on March 26 at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium.

"MS Dhoni was thinking about it," Viswanathan said. "He felt it is the right time to hand over captaincy to Jaddu [Jadeja]. He feels Jaddu is also in prime form of his career and it is the ideal time for him lead CSK. What will be good for the franchise must be [in the] back of his mind."

Jadeja, who has been with the franchise since 2012, will become the third player to lead the Super Kings side, after Dhoni and Suresh Raina.

Dhoni has, over the years, repaid that faith with interest. In the 213 matches in which he led Super Kings - in the IPL and the now-defunct Champions League T20 - there were 130 wins, 81 losses, and, crucially, six titles: four at the IPL and two at the CLT20.

Captain cool bokka ani innallu worst performance tho team lo unnadu.. 

Raina ki hand ichadu dobi ghat gadu

Raina and Mahi will have no differences over this. neeku ekkuva unnai.

Mahi is playing and sticking around only to groom the next cap. He has no other intentions imho.

He won the IPL despite having a medicore old team 

His batting has declined with age but still the best at extracting effort from all his players  

He is going to retire in a year or two , this is him mentoring next captain just like he did to kohli
