M S Dhoni
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 to the national setup.
“It is a good decision. I have always believed that once a cricketer retires, he should return to the sets only after three to four years, but it seems to be a special case with the World Cup. Ravi (Shastri) ) ) is also down with COVID so it seems to be 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.
