Virat Kohli on MS Dhoni’s retirement: ‘Me and him playing again, maybe for the last time’ | Ipl News

Virat Kohli has dropped a massive hint on MS Dhoni’s future, saying the Saturday match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) might be the last time the duo will play together.
“For fans to see him (Dhoni) play in any stadium in India is a big thing,” Kohli said on Jio Cinema.
“Me & him playing again, maybe for the last time, you never know – that is a special thing.
“We have had some great memories, some great partnerships for India, it’s a great occasion for fans to see us together.”
While talking about Dhoni, Kohli went down the memory lane and spoke about MS Dhoni’s mindset, while chasing a target. Kohli said Dhoni was someone who used to remain unaffected what the rest of the world was saying about his tactics with the bat.
“People used to say the same about Mahi bhai (Mahendra Singh Dhoni). ‘Why is he taking the game to 20th over or 50th over.’ But how many matches did he finish for India!
“He’s probably the only person who knows what he’s doing! And he’s finishing the game from there. For me, that’s muscle memory. He knows if he takes the match till the last over, he’ll win the game.
“My mindset was different. I used to think let’s finish the game in the 49th over (in ODIs) or 19th over (in T20s). If he was batting with me at the end, then the thinking was different.
“He will take the game into the last over where the opposition team is shivering in fear.”
