"You never know with MS Dhoni. But it is unlikely that he will continue to play for India after this World Cup. But since his decisions to quit captaincy from the three formats have been taken so suddenly, it is very difficult to predict at the moment," PTI quoted a senior BCCI official as saying.

MSD is also part of Indian squad at World Cup 2019 and has been showing superb skills behind the stumps. The 39-year-old is helping Indian skipper Kohli effectively to lead the Indian team in World Cup 2019 with his clever tactics and suggestions. Dhoni has also taken some outstanding catches behind the stumps.

MS has also scored 223 runs in the tournament so far at a strike rate of more than 90. India has already reached the semi-finals and if India team bags Cricket World Cup 2019 trophy, it will be a big moment for the former Indian captain to announce his retirement. However, it will also break the hearts of many Indian fans who worship Indian cricket legend Mahendra Singh Dhoni like a god.
