MS Dhoni any competitive cricket for over 10 months. The Indian wicket-keeper last featured during India’s semi-final loss to New Zealand in the World Cup 2019 in England.  He was set to return in action with IPL 2020. However, BCCI has suspended the 13th edition of IPL  due to the pandemic outbreak of coronavirus in March.

“I played in all the formats under him barring IPL. With regard to guidance, he will always treat his teammates in such a way that you won’t even feel that he is MS Dhoni,” Mohammed Shami said.

The Indian pacer added, “He is such a big player. I have a lot of memories of him. Now also we think, Mahi Bhai will come and it will be fun playing. One thing I like is  (Dhoni) likes to sit with everyone and have dinner. There are always two-four people with him. We chat till late at night, and these are the things that one misses.”

Earlier, Dhoni’s CSK teammate Harbhajan Singh shared his thought on the India Wicket-keeper batsman’s future. The spinner was skeptical about Dhoni’s return to the national team once again.

Bhajji said, “He wants to play IPL 100 percent. But one needs to know his take on whether he wants to play for India anymore or not. I think he doesn’t want to play for India again. He has played so much for India. As far as I know him, he doesn’t want to wear the blue jersey again. He decided that India’s last match in the World Cup was his last. A few people have also told me that this is the case.”
