Mahendra Singh Dhoni, former captain of the Indian cricket team, is once again in the headlines. This time the reason is not cricket, but tennis. Recently, Dhoni was seen enjoying the ongoing US Open 2025 in America. He watched the match of Novak Djokovic in the quarter -finals, who is the world’s number seven.
Dhoni’s video Chhaya on social media
A video of Dhoni is becoming increasingly viral on social media, in which he is seen sitting among the audience watching the match of Djokovic. Wherever Dhoni goes, fans surround him. His style was seen in New York too. Businessman Hitesh Sanghvi shared a picture with Dhoni on his Instagram, in which he is seen enjoying the US Open.
Djokovic defeated Fritz
In the quarterfinal match, Novak Djokovic defeated America’s Taylor Fritz 6-3, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4 to make it to the semi-finals. With this victory, Djokovic has traveled to the least semi -finals in the fourth consecutive Grand Slam this season. Now he will face Carlos Alkaraj in the semi -finals.
Interestingly, Djokovic’s record against Alkaraj is 5-3. Recently, he also won the gold medal by defeating Alkaraj in the final of the Paris Olympics.
Dhoni’s future in IPL is still in questions
Even though Dhoni is enjoying tennis away from cricket, but there is only one question in the mind of the fans, will Dhoni play IPL 2026?
This time Dhoni’s performance in IPL 2025 was not as expected. He scored only 196 runs in 14 matches and during this time his average was also 24.50. His team Chennai Super Kings (CSK) also stood at the lowest position. This is the reason that now speculation about his retirement has intensified.
At the moment, Dhoni has not announced any retirement, but it is certain that whether on the field or outside, Dhoni makes the headlines wherever he goes.
