Ms dhoni: There has been a stir in Indian cricket once again. The news of Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s return to Team India before the Asia Cup 2025 started has created a sensation among the fans. Significantly, Team India has been announced under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav and India will start its campaign against UAE from 10 September.
The BCCI has once again decided to add India to Team India, a 2007 T20 World Cup and the 2011 ODI World Cup to win the ODI World Cup of 2011. Dhoni has been offered to become a mentor for the T20 World Cup 2026. If he accepts it, then the combination of Gautam Gambhir’s coaching and MS Dhoni’s mentalization can prove to be a game changer for Team India.
Manoj Tiwari’s tanj
As soon as the news of Dhoni’s possible return came to light, former Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwari gave a fun reaction to this. He said, “He has been offered? He would have picked up the phone? Because it is very difficult to talk to him on the phone, the answer is rarely found on the message.” However, Tiwari also admitted that if MS Dhoni joins with Gambhir, it will prove to be very beneficial for young players.
Mentor has been there before
Let me tell you that this is not the first time that Dhoni has been given the responsibility of Mentor with Team India. In 2021 too, he was made a mentor during the T20 World Cup under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, but then India’s performance was very disappointing and the team was out of the group stage. Now in 2026, when India and Sri Lanka will jointly host the T20 World Cup, Gambhir’s coaching and Dhoni’s mentoring can become a new hope for the Indian team.
