Ravindra Jadeja shares photo with MS Dhoni after being retained by Chennai

Ravindra Jadeja and the Chennai franchise were rumored to have a rift during the Indian T20 League 2022. Apparently, after the all-rounder was stripped of captaincy duties, it was alleged that he was unhappy with the team. Also, not to forget, he was ruled out of the remainder of the tournament in the dying stages. After this development, the talks of a rift between the 2013 Champions Trophy winner and the team grew wider.

After a while, the Saurashtra-born deleted all the posts related to the four-time Indian T20 League winners. On the other hand, both parties also unfollowed each other on social media platforms. However, on November 15 (the last day of announcing the player retention list), the left-handed all-rounder was retained by the Yellow Army. In reply, the 33-year posted a three-letter tweet, thanking the team.

On top of that, he posted a picture with MS Dhoni. In this picture, he can see be seen bowing to Dhoni.
