AB de Villiers Humorously Shares His views On Dhoni’s IPL Future

MS Dhoni

The ‘uncapped player’ rule has raised questions about the future of MS Dhoni in the IPL, with AB de Villiers jokingly suggesting that Dhoni should continue playing until he is 80 years old.

The upcoming IPL mega auction has sparked heated discussions among fans and experts, with the ‘uncapped player’ rule being a major point of contention. The BCCI’s definition of an uncapped player has raised questions about its potential implications for the future of Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni.

Dhoni has been the subject of much speculation regarding his retirement plans. While he has continued to grace the IPL with his presence, there is always a sense of uncertainty about whether each season will be his last. The ‘uncapped player’ rule, which allows players who have not been part of India’s playing XI in the last five years to be considered uncapped, has added another layer of complexity to Dhoni’s situation.

Former South African great AB de Villiers also took part in the debate, jokingly suggesting that Dhoni should continue playing until he reaches 80 years old. De Villiers emphasised the immense popularity and impact of Dhoni on the cricketing world, stating, “I do feel the uncapped player rule brought back only for MS Dhoni and rightfully so we want to see this man play. Everywhere you go, you talk about cricket and his name always comes up.”

The IPL mega auction will be a crucial event for CSK as they navigate the new rule and decide whether to retain Dhoni. With six retentions and the possibility of using the Right to Match (RTM) card, the team will need to carefully consider their options and balance their desire to retain Dhoni with their need to build a competitive squad for the future.
