“It’s not like we meet very often, but…”: MS Dhoni reveals his bond with Virat Kohli

Dhoni recently spoke at an event in Hyderabad. Talking about his relationship with Virat, Dhoni said that whenever they meet, they make it a point to chat. “We are colleagues who have played for India for a long time. He (Kohli) is among the best when it comes to world cricket. fun because we used to do a lot of twos and threes in the game, so it was always fun. It’s not like we meet up very often, but whenever we get a chance, we make sure to go to the side and talk. for some time we will talk about what is happening, so that is our relationship,” Dhoni said.

Recently, Virat was part of the ICC T20 World Cup winning team, defeating South Africa in the final by seven runs in Barbados, with the 35-year-old scoring a match-winning 76 in what turned out to be his last T20I for India.

Virat is currently participating in the ODI series during the Sri Lanka tour. The three-match series began on Friday.

Dhoni played in the 2024 league season after successful knee surgery. But despite all this, he was sometimes seen struggling and limping on the field.

However, CSK failed to qualify for the playoffs as they fell a little short of qualifying due to their loss to

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), finishing in fifth place with 14 points and a total of seven wins and losses each.
