Former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) player Dwayne Bravo was seen talking to MS Dhoni on video call during the mega auction of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. The franchises had gathered for the mega auction to place in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia where Bravo was present with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) franchise. After Gautam Gambhir left, Bravo was appointed as the mentor of the team.

He was a former member of the CSK management but is a part of the Knight Riders franchise in the leagues worldwide. Hence, he decided to move to KKR ahead of the IPL 2025. Bravo had been an integral part of the CSK franchise for a long time and had done considerably well in many seasons. He has a different bond with MS Dhoni and that is why he was seen talking to him over video call. 

Watch the video here:

CSK made some good purchases on the first day with the highest being Noor Ahmed for INR 10 crores. Then came Ravichandran Ashwin for INR 9.75 crores. Ashwin will be joining the CSK franchise for the second time, so it's a homecoming for him. 

CSK locked in Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra in mega auction

The Chennai Super Kings franchise would be happy with the way their first day in the mega auction went as they grabbed Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra under INR 10 crores. Conway went for INR 6.75 crores while Rachin went for INR 4 crores. CSK used their RTM card for Rachin and brought him to their team.

He was a brilliant opener in the previous season, filling up Conway's space. Now, CSK will be looking for a pace bowler who can ball at the start of the game since they have three quality spinners in their team now in form of Ravindra Jadeja, Noor Ahmed and Ravichandran Ashwin.
