MS Dhoni is not Important to Win the World Cup: Aakash Chopra

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) CEO Kasi Viswanathan gave MS Dhoni fans a great praise when he told Live Heed that their captain will play Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2021 likely in 2022 too. The theory is overflowing about Dhoni’s universal future. However, his accessibility for CSK in IPL implies he is still in the state of mind to play serious cricket. 

With 2 versions of the IPL set to be played in under a half year, given the novel coronavirus pandemic facilitates without further ado, MS Dhoni can, in any case, make the eagerly awaited India return. 

MS Dhoni has not played severe cricket since India’s exit at the 2019 World Cup semi-last, and previous India batsman Aakash Chopra has repeated that the former chief might not have any desire to play for India once more. 

Aakash Chopra trusts MS Dhoni’s essence won’t be so significant for India’s crusade at the 2021 T20 World Cup. The worldwide T20 competition is booked to be held in India in October-November one year from now. 

“I think we can manage without him because we are talking about 2021. It is in India, and you want Dhoni to be there in the team and want him to play,” Aakash Chopra said while addressing a fan’s question on his YouTube show #AskAakash.

“In any case, the main thing, does Dhoni need to play? I have been stating this mind-numbingly repetitive I feel he wouldn’t like to play. 

 We are discussing 2021, and It is still over a year to go. In this way, we need to become accustomed to overseeing without him, and I figure we will become acclimated to it by that point. 

“So I feel his quality isn’t critical to such an extent that on the off chance that he isn’t there, you won’t win the World Cup.” 

MS Dhoni purportedly returned to indoor preparation in Jharkhand as of late ahead of the pack up to IPL 2020. The CSK captain set to arrive at Chennai not long from now and head to the UAE on August 21. Dhoni is a piece of CSK’s arrangements for a camp in Chennai before the group flies out of India. 

 CSK CEO Viswanathan stated: “We can expect MS Dhoni to be a piece of both (IPL 2020 and 2021) and likely for even the following year, 2022.” 

Regardless of the theory around his universal future, MS Dhoni himself has kept mum about his arrangements. While the group the board didn’t preclude Dhoni’s odds of return in the number one spot up to the now-deferred 2020 T20 World Cup, it is not yet clear if Dhoni, who will turn 40 in July one year from now, will come back to the senior side. 

Prior this year, Dhoni’s CSK colleague Harbhajan Singh said the previous skipper wouldn’t like to play for India any longer. 

“He needs to play IPL 100 percent. Be that as it may, one has to know his interpretation of whether he needs to play for India any longer or not. I figure he wouldn’t like to play for India once more. He has played such an outstanding amount for India. 

“As far as I know him, he doesn’t want to wear the blue jersey again. He decided that India’s last match in the World Cup was his last. A few people have also told me that this is the case,” Harbhajan said during a social media interaction with Rohit Sharma.
