The former regulation that permitted franchises to register players who had retired from international cricket or who had not played for a lengthy period as “uncapped” was reinstated by the Indian Premier League (IPL) Governing Council.
All ten IPL teams were given the opportunity to reconsider their retention plans thanks to the law, but many feel that the modifications were made specifically for the great MS Dhoni, who the Chennai Super Kings can now keep for just INR 4 crore as an uncapped player.

Former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif feels certain that the IPL rules were altered only to allow Dhoni to play on, despite CSK’s claim that they had not spoken with him about the issue.
“You will get the chance to see MS Dhoni again. He is fit, batting at a strike rate of 200, keeping well, and that is why I believe the rules will keep changing till he wants to play. If he wants to play in the IPL, he will play. He is such a big player, such a big match-winner, and has been a leader for CSK,” said Kaif during a chat on Star Sports.
