Yuvraj and Dhoni had been the backbone of India’s middle order for years as the duo bailed their side out of trouble several times.
Dhoni and Yuvraj added over 3,000 runs together in the 50-overs form꧋at, averaging close to 52. The pair put on 10 hundred-plus partnerships in the ODI format.
In June last year, Yuvi retired from all forms of the game, including the Indian Premier League (IPL). Meanwhile, Dhoni will lead the൩ Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL 2020, eyeing the fourth title as the action moves to the UAE.
The 13th season of the IPL was scheduled to begin in March this year but due to the coronavirus pandemic, the BCCI had to postpone the event and later decided to move the tournament out🦄 of India.
The IPL 2020 will start on September 19 and the fina𒉰l will be played on November 10.
