Former Indian captain and legendary cricketer MS Dhoni has come forward to shed light on the remainder of his cricketing career.
Speaking about his future in cricket during the launch event of his app, Dhoni said that he wants to enjoy whatever ‘last few years’ he has left in the sport.
His exact words were, “I’ve retired since 2019, so it will be quite some time. What I’ve been doing in the meantime is I just want to enjoy cricket for the last, whatever few years, you know, I will be able to play.”
Dhoni also shed light on his memories of playing cricket as a child. He mentioned, “I want to enjoy it, how I did as a child when I was in school. When I lived in a colony, 4 o’clock was sports time, so we’d go and play cricket more often than not…
…But if the weather didn’t permit, we used to play football. I want to play with the same kind of innocence… easier said than done.”
Dhoni was retained by Chennai Super Kings as a wicketkeeper-batter for Rs.4 Crores, one-third of the 2024 amount.
With MSD planning to retire in a few years, it will be interesting to see the impact his leaving will have on Chennai Super Kings, a franchise that has its entire brand value revolving around Dhoni.
