India’s Dhoni quits international cricket, to play IPL - chairman - 08-16-2020
NEW DELHI, (Reuters) – Former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni quit international cricket yesterday, drawing curtains on an illustrious, trophy-laden career with a cryptic Instagram message.
“Thanks a lot for your love and support throughout. From 1929 hrs consider me as Retired,” he wrote on Instagram with a video montage which had images from his 15-year international career.
The message ended speculation around the international future of the enigmatic 39-year-old, who quit test cricket in 2014 and has not played for India since the team’s semi-final exit at the 50-overs World Cup in July last year.
“It is the end of an era,” Indian cricket board (BCCI) president Sourav Ganguly said in a statement.
