So That’s Completely An Individual Call For MS Dhoni: Sarandeep Singh

According to Sarandeep Singh, a JioCinema expert for IPL 2023, the possibility of MS Dhoni playing for CSK next year hinges on his fitness. If he is deemed fit, he should be able to participate.

Singh, who was previously a selector for the Indian team, added that Dhoni himself would evaluate his abilities and assess whether he can make a meaningful contribution to the team.

“If MS Dhoni is fit, he can play. But when we speak about MS Dhoni, it’s always his call. Because no one can tell better than him how he would be feeling or how will his body respond. We have been seeing him for the last 15 years and this season as well. We saw him in the last game, against RCB, the way he took those two catches. He ran from behind the wicket, called for the catch, and grabbed it. He simply takes the pressure on himself.”

“He’s one of the best we have ever had. So, it totally depends on him; if he feels he can contribute. It’s not just about playing but also about the contribution. You see the last game and the ones before. Whenever his team needs him, he comes and hits a few sixes or puts the score on the board. So, that’s a completely individual call for Dhoni.”
