Since India’s semi-final exit from the 2019 World Cup against New Zealand in August last year, Dhoni did not feature for the Men In Blue.
During his break from cricket, the 39-year-old served for the Indian Army too.
However, the Ranchi-born cricketer will be in action with Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the upcoming 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in UAE.
