Despite announcing his retirement from international cricket in August 2020, former Indian captain MS Dhoni is still one of the most talked about cricketers in the world. Dhoni last played in the Indian Premier League earlier this year and will lead Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the next edition of the tournament in 2023. With less than six months to go before the start of IPL 2023, Dhoni was seen as a batter in the nets at Jharkhand Cricket Associations Stadium, to get up to speed.
