Why CSK Legend MS Dhoni Cannot Feature In Tamil Nadu Premier League

The tournament features World's no. 1 Test bowler Ravichandran Ashwin, who will be representing Dindigul Dragons.

Since Ashwin is part of the tournament, many fans would be wondering why MS Dhoni cannot feature in TNPL.

MS Dhoni, who has brought many accolades to Tamil Nadu and won 5 IPL titles for Chennai, cannot play in TNPL even if he wants to.

The 'no outstation player rule' in TNPL prohibits any outstation player to feature in the tournament.

A player who is playing domestic cricket under Tamil Nadu Cricket Association's (TNCA) umbrella is allowed to play TNPL.

Jharkhand's Ranchi-born MS Dhoni is registered as a cricketer under Jharkhand Cricket Association and doesn't play domestic cricket now.
