Dhoni expressed his intention to return to the IPL for another year, provided his body supported the endeavour. During the post-match presentation of the IPL 2023 final, he conveyed his willingness to make a comeback for the fans, underscoring his deep appreciation for their unwavering support.

Aside from his potential IPL return, Dhoni also provided an update on his health. He had undergone knee surgery immediately following the conclusion of IPL 2023. Regarding his recovery, Dhoni revealed that medical professionals had informed him that his knee should be in better shape by November.
