Player should return to national team after 3-4 years of retirement, Dhoni’s case is special: Kapil

When the squad was selected for the T20 World Cup, the BCCI made a surprise announcement on Dhoni’s role.

India great Kapil Dev on Friday welcomed the appointment of MS Dhoni as the mentor of the national team for the T20 World Cup, saying it seems a special case as he is back on the sets only a year after retirement. .

Speaking at an event here, Kapil said there should be a gap of at least three to four years for a retired cricketer to come back into the national structure.

“It is a good decision. I have always been of the opinion that once a cricketer retires, he should return to the sets only after three to four years, but with the World Cup it seems to be a special case. Ravi (Shastri) ) is also suffering from COVID, so it is a special case,” Kapil said.

The BCCI on Wednesday made a surprise announcement on Dhoni’s role while selecting the squad for the T20 World Cup.
