After all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was stripped from his captaincy mid-IPL in 2022, there were speculations that the star cricketer and MS Dhoni have had a rift between them. Jadeja left the team mid-season citing an injury and also deleted posts from his social media handle related to the Chennai Super Kings (CSK).

Other reports also suggested that Jadeja will leave CSK ahead of the 2023 season but he ended up hitting the winning runs for the franchise to win their fifth title in tournament history. Speaking about the rumoured rift, former CSK star Ambati Rayudu revealed that it was never personal between Dhoni and Jadeja. He stated that Jadeja was not impressed with the team's performance and nothing else.

"I don't think Jaddu (Jadeja) was upset with Mahi bhai at all. It was just that he was sad because the team wasn't doing great. Everyone's performances that year were not coming up to the mark," Rayudu said on BehindWoodsTV Youtube channel.

"He (Dhoni) has put this team and has made Jaddu (Jadeja) what he is today. He has nurtured him for what, 10-12 years. So he would naturally be happy that the product that he made has won the final for CSK after whatever happened last year," he added.

Rayudu played his last IPL game against the Gujarat Titans in the 2023 final. During his stellar career, Rayudu played for two champion teams - Mumbai Indians (MI) and the Chennai Super Kings. He is eyeing his sixth IPL title tonight against the Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat team.

"2 great teams mi nd csk,204 matches,14 seasons,11 playoffs,8 finals,5 trophies.hopefully 6th tonight. It’s been quite a journey.I have decided that tonight’s final is going to be my last game in the Ipl.i truly hav enjoyed playing this great tournament.Thank u all. No u turn," tweeted Ambati Rayudu.
