Hardik Pandya, MS Dhoni (Source: Twitter)Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya is a fun-loving character in the dressing room. Apart from his fun antics, the all rounder also has immense respect for the seniors in the team. One such senior, whom Pandya admires a lot is the legendary Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Giving another glimpse of the camaraderie between him and the former India captain, Pandya shared a fun photograph of the duo on Thursday.
The 29-year-old took to his social media handles and posted a photo of him and Dhoni together where the duo can be seen sitting in the famous bike from the Bollywood movie ‘Sholay’. The duo posed as fictional characters 'Jai and Veeru'. He captioned the post, ‘Sholay 2 coming soon 😉.’

India are all set to face off with New Zealand in a three-match T20I series starting on Friday. The ‘Men-in-Blue’ recently whitewashed the Kiwis 3-0 in the ODI series and now will be aiming to do the same in T20Is as well. The first match of the series will be played in Dhoni’s hometown Ranchi. India will be led by Hardik Pandya who’s been captaining the T20I side after the 20-20 World Cup 2022.
While MS Dhoni will be seen back in action in the next year’s Indian T20 League. Ahead of the season, there have been many speculations on the retirement of the World Cup-winning captain from all forms of cricket. Dhoni had previously revealed in an interview that he will happily retire after playing his final game for the Chennai Franchise at their home ground M. Chidambaram stadium in Chennai.
MS Dhoni to retire after Indian T20 League 2023?
With the Indian T20 League set to take place in the home and away format next year, the season could well turn out to be the last one for the 41-year-old veteran. Under Dhoni’s leadership, Chennai have clinched four titles of the Indian T20 League and are the second most successful franchise after Mumbai.
After finishing at the 9th position in the points table last season, Chennai will be looking for a dramatic turnaround and give a winning farewell to the ‘Captain Cool’.
Meanwhile, Twitter was abuzz with reactions on Dhoni and Hardik’s photograph. Here are some of the Tweets:
