Good for him and CSK. It isn't uncommon for players who are done with international cricket to participate in IPL. Shane Warne was almost 2 years into retirement when he played for RR in the first IPL. Instead of not giving him a contract, BCCI should have given him a special contingent contract - play a specially arranged farewell game against Namibia, collect the match fee and ride off into the sunset on his Harley, with his chela Jaddu riding by his side on a (saddle less) horse.

This is like casting Rajinikanth again and again to appeal Tamil audience. While guys like Amitabh playing roles that suit his age, this guy continues playing macho hero roles.  They are doing the same in cricket. They idolize him. So they keep selecting rather "casting" him as their leader. This is like a movie gig for Dhoni. 

exactly. too much hero worshiping. same from Karuna MGR Jaya time and now Rajini Dhoni etc. I am certain in few years if Dhoni gets some Bjp ticket in the north he will have phenomenal backing in TN, just a bit of theatrics to back it and he will be golden.

As long as there are domestic trundlers to get bashed up by the superhero, they will keep on casting him. Cricket viewing public outside of ICF think he is still good enough to play for India and should be brought back, so there's plenty of potential viewership. Of all the dragged out retirements, Dhoni's is the worst. The guy refuses to say anything and doesn't even declare openly that he wants to play the T20 WC. I guess he will "let his bat do the talking" with heroic, edge of the kursi thriller knocks in the IPL.
