MS Dhoni’s close friend Paramjit Singh predicted the cricket star will continue playing beyond IPL 2024, citing his superb fitness, despite speculation of retirement after this season.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain MS Dhoni is set to make his return to cricket in the upcoming 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL). Despite speculation that this season might mark Dhoni’s retirement, his childhood friend Paramjit Singh suggests otherwise. Singh, in an interview with OneCricket, expressed confidence in Dhoni’s continued fitness, hinting that he may extend his playing career beyond IPL 2024.
“I do not think this will be his (Dhoni’s) last season. He is still fit. I think he will play one or two more seasons. He will definitely play one more season. The reason is he is fit,” Paramjit can be heard saying in the video.
