Dhoni has guided CSK to five IPL titles—in 2010, 2011, 2018, 2021, and 2023—tying him with Rohit Sharma as the most successful captain in IPL history. When it comes to winning, Dhoni doesn’t follow trends—he sets them.

With 133 wins in 226 matches as captain—128 of those with CSK—Dhoni holds the record for most wins by a captain in IPL history. He doesn’t just lead teams—he builds dynasties.

No one comes close to Dhoni’s 226-match captaincy streak. That’s nearly two decades of tactical brilliance, composed leadership, and pressure-proof decision-making.

Dhoni also holds the record for the most sixes by a captain in the IPL—a jaw-dropping 218 sixes. Whether finishing games or shifting momentum, he does it in style.

With 4,660 runs as captain, Dhoni is second only to Virat Kohli on the all-time list for IPL runs scored as skipper. He’s not just the brain—he’s also the bat behind many CSK victories.

Dhoni has 91 IPL losses as captain—the most ever. It reflects not failure, but his unmatched longevity and readiness to shoulder responsibility through every high and low.
