The 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 has provided many reasons for fans to celebrate, with the return of four-time champion Chennai Super Kings’ legendary captain MS Dhoni being one of the most significant. Since Dhoni’s retirement from international cricket in August 2020, many have speculated that he will also resign from the Indian Premier League. It is quite possible that Dhoni will continue to play in the IPL beyond 2023, given that he is currently delivering some of his finest performances in the competition. Ex-Indian cricketer Sarandeep Singh weighed in on Dhoni’s prospective retirement from the lucrative league after pondering the issue.
Sarandeep Singh told Jio Cinema, “If he is healthy, he can perform. However, when we discuss MS Dhoni, the decision is always his. Because no one knows better than him how he will feel or how his body will react.”
“We have seen him for the past 15 years, as well as this season. In the previous match against RCB, we witnessed him taking two receptions. He dashed forward from behind the wicket, yelled for the catch, and caught the ball. He takes the pressure upon himself,” he continued.
Sarandeep Singh is one of the finest we’ve ever had.
Continuing in the same vein, Sarandeep Singh lavished MS Dhoni with additional praise. He opined that the 41-year-old’s retirement would be entirely dependent on his feelings over time.
He is among the finest we’ve ever had. Therefore, it is entirely dependent on him; if he believes he can contribute, he must volunteer. It is not just a matter of performing, but also of contribution. You view the previous and most recent games. Whenever his team requires him, he steps in and hits a few sixes or scores a run. Thus, this is an entirely personal decision for Dhoni, as Sarandeep Singh concluded.
