Whenever MS Dhoni does something out of the ordinary, it tends to send the internet into a frenzy. Something similar happened earlier in the week when the former Indian captain came out in a batting net session with a unique sticker on his bat. The sponsor’s logo on Dhoni’s bat read, “Prime Sports,” a sports apparel shop owned by his friend back in his hometown.
Paramjit’s word on MS Dhoni’s gesture
After a heartwarming gesture by MS Dhoni won the internet, his friend Paramjit has come out with a message for his childhood friend. “I am feeling very proud of him. He has always been there for us. And this is our friendship. Friendship No. 1,” he told Aaj Tak. Paramjit also revealed a bat that was gifted to him and autographed by the man himself, which carried the message: “Best wishes, Chhotu Bhaiya.”
MS Dhoni over the years
This has been a template with MS Dhoni in recent years. It all started in the 2019 ODI WC in England, where the former skipper was seen with different sets of bats with stickers of sponsors who supported him over the years in his career. The most noticeable of them all were SS and BAS bats, which were associated with the flamboyant batting of MSD in the earlier years of his career.
This move by MS ahead of the IPL 2024 can be a hint at how the player might be playing his final season of the marquee tournament. Although the player has not clarified his stand on retirement, the idea of the same has been in the background for a while.
As things stand, MS Dhoni will definitely feature in the upcoming season. This will be his 15th season with the team, this time, he has scored 4957 runs for the side in 244 innings and will be looking to retire as the only second batter with 5000 runs for the Super Kings.
