Shaji Ul Malk, the founder and chairman of T Ten Global Sports, believes that the renowned MS Dhoni might play in the T10 format. The former India captain’s eligibility to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 is currently in doubt due to this event.
A regulation that would permit Dhoni to play for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) as an uncapped player was recently reinstated by the IPL Governing Council. In addition to extending the wicketkeeper-batter’s IPL career, this move will provide CSK more money to assemble the remainder of their squad. On the other hand, Dhoni’s involvement in the upcoming season has not been confirmed. The 43-year-old has kept quiet, which has sparked rumors that he may be retiring.
MS Dhoni is one of the most fit cricket players, and there are no indications that his reflexes are deteriorating.
On the other hand, he has been dealing with a sore knee for a while. The five-time IPL champion captain will have the choice to watch the games in the T10 format if he decides to retire from the league.
“Yes, I believe that current India internationals are prohibited from playing in any other league outside the Indian Premier League, aside from the highest tier of international cricket players. Nearly all of India’s top players, who had just retired, have come to play T10. According to the Times of India, Shaji stated, “So, yes, we can expect MS Dhoni to be playing T10 when he makes up his mind.”

Players from 11 different countries are expected to compete in the upcoming Abu Dhabi T10 2024 season.

Matthew Boucher, the CEO of Abu Dhabi Cricket, claims that the T10 format’s attractiveness is expanding quickly on a global scale. Cricket fans will be excited to see Dhoni play in the shortest format in the future, even though this may not be the year.
