‘And Dhoni finishes it off in style’ – these words always echo in an Indian cricket fan’s mind whenever we speak about the world cup. It was the date of 2nd April which was carved down the history of the Indian cricket as soon as MS Dhoni deposited Nuwan Kulasekra’s delivery in the stands. 9 years ago, In 2011, India lifted its only second ODI World Cup after 28 years on this very day. Fan-favorite ‘Mahi’ played a captain’s knock at the Wankhede to help India chase down the target set by Sri Lanka and sent the Indian fans in the frenzy.
Fast forward 9 years, Dhoni is no longer a part of the Indian team. The former India captain was dropped from the team after the 2019 World Cup and he hasn’t played a game for the country yet. Dhoni’s international career is hanging in the balance at the moment as he hasn’t played any competivie or domestic cricket in the recent time.
The former Indian captain was looking forward to the IPL 2020 as a way for his comeback to the national colors. Dhoni was all set to captain CSK in the competition. However, the BCCI decided to pospone the league due to the global pandemic coronavirus outbreak. There has been reports that the league could be canceled altoghether which has left Dhoni’s future in the dark shadows.
Now, a close friend of Dhoni suggests that Dhoni is still hopeful to make a comeback and he gets angry whenever asked about retirement.
In an exclusive interview to ABP a close friend of Dhoni spilled some beans about MS Dhoni’s future. The Friend of Dhoni wished anonymity and did not want to reveal his identity.
Mahi gets angry when we ask him questions on his retirement. He still feels he is the fittest of all and quickest wicket-keeper in India.
He [Dhoni] has worked even harder in the last few months before everything stopped. I haven’t seen him doing agility training so intensely ever. He knows he is not getting younger and perhaps that is why training even harder to keep himself fit.
He has proved everyone wrong when no one backed him. Now there are millions of fans to back him. So he will take his chances for sure.
told Dhoni’s friend to ABP.
Well, only time will tell if Dhoni will be able to make his comeback to the Indian side or not. But, the fans across the globe are waiting for their favorite ‘Thala’ to play in the CSK colors in the IPL.
