Sanju Samson Could Be MS Dhoni’s CSK Successor: Pathan

Former India pacer Irfan Pathan says Sanju Samson could be the next CSK captain and Dhoni’s successor. Samson, fresh off the 2026 T20 World Cup win, can lead, bat consistently, and connect with fans. Pathan adds Dhoni’s role as a finisher has reduced, and he should take more responsibility this IPL season.
