While one could argue that MS Dhoni is not the batter these days he once used to be when he was at the peak of his international career, what one cannnot say that Dhoni's fitness has dipped. Barring the knee injury that has troubled him in the past two seasons, he has remained on top of his fitness game season after season. Runs may have come or not but he has been superb with his fitness, with his gloverwork remaining top-notch even after he announced his retirmenet from international cricket.

The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) superstar has only been plying his trade in the Indian Premier League (IPL). However, he has to plan his year in a way that he could be at peak fitness when the IPL is played. Apart frrom gym sessions, Dhoni also plays other sports like football and badminton and now a video has gone viral in which the legendary wicketkeeper-batter can be seen acing a powerful smash while playing a game of badminton.

MS Dhoni Could Be Treated As 'Uncapped' Player In IPL 2025

Notably, when the IPL started, there was a rule in place as per which the capped players who have retired for five years or more will be treated as 'uncapped' players. The rule was discontinued in 2021. However, CSK are keen on getting back the rule so that they treat Dhoni as uncapped.
