MS Dhoni played his last match at the Semi-Final of the World Cup 2019 and after the World Cup heartbreak, the cricketer took a break to serve the army and is yet to return to the international cricket.
The former Indian captain was seen practising at Ranchi recently, however, he skipped the West Indies series as well.
Now, there is speculation that the cricketer would return in March 2020, months before the IPL.
In the month of March, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has sought permission from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to allow seven of its top cricketers to be part of the Asia XI team, which is scheduled to play two T20 Internationals against the Rest of the World.
The two matches are scheduled on March 18 and 21 and have already been accorded the status of international matches by the International Cricket Council (ICC).
Besides Dhoni, the other top cricketers, that the BCB has requested for are Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Ravindra Jadeja.
“Yes, Bangladesh is scheduled to host two T20 Internationals between Asia XI and Rest of the World. We are in touch with BCCI and other cricket boards of the Asian region to allow their players to be part of these two games,” BCB chief executive Nizamuddin Chowdhury told India Today.
It will be interesting to see if Dhoni accepts to play the match.
