MS Dhoni Fitness: Mahendra Singh Dhoni is counted among the great captains of India. Under his captaincy, the Indian team won the T20 World Cup, ICC ODI World Cup and Champions Trophy. Apart from this, he has won the IPL trophy for the Chennai Super Kings team five times. He is 43 years old and is ready to play in the IPL this time as an uncapped player. But even before IPL 2025, a statement of Dhoni has come out regarding fitness.
I am no longer a fan of social media: Dhoni
"I have never been a big fan of social media, I had different managers and they kept pushing me. I started playing in 2004, so Twitter and Instagram were getting popular and managers were saying you should build some PR. This and that, but my answer was the same. If I play good cricket then I don't need PR. I know if I take care of cricket then everything else will happen on its own," MS Dhoni said at Eurogrip Tyres' 'Trade Talks'.
Dhoni said a big thing on fitness
Mahendra Singh Dhoni retired from international cricket in the year 2020 itself. But he is preparing to play in the 18th season of IPL and he said that I am not as fit as before, a lot of effort is now needed on what you are eating and I am doing very special things to stay fit for cricket. We are not fast bowlers so our needs are not that intense.
Playing games helps: Dhoni
Mahendra Singh Dhoni said that playing a lot of games between eating and going to the gym really helps me. So whenever I get time I like to play many different sports, like tennis, badminton, football, which keeps me busy. This is a good way to maintain fitness.
He said that I thought I would get more time, but it is a bit disappointing that I did not get much time. I do not miss international cricket now because I always believe that you take your decisions after thinking about it. Once you have taken a decision, there is no point in thinking about it. So whatever I have been able to do for my country, I am very happy with the grace of God.
