Would be extremely surprised if this is Dhoni’s last season: Kevin Pietersen

Former England skipper Kevin Pietersen said that he would be taken aback if MS Dhoni doesn’t take part in another edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). At the age of 41, Dhoni happens to be the oldest player in the ongoing IPL season and the only player above 40.

Pietersen said that Dhoni has the potential to return for the 2024 edition as well.

“I was there for Dhoni’s lap of honour on Sunday, and it was incredible to see how the stadium stayed completely full.

“I'd be extremely surprised if this is his last season. I think this impact player rule actually helps him tremendously, where he can keep for 20 overs and bat wherever he wants to bat,” Pietersen wrote in his column for Betway.
