MS Dhoni showed his playful side by dressing up as Santa Claus while celebrating Christmas with his family. The viral pictures brought a heartwarming feeling to the celebration, making fans look forward to a possible IPL 2025 appearance.
Former India skipper MS Dhoni brought festive fun to his family by coming as Santa Claus so they could enjoy their Christmas day. The wife of cricketer Dhoni, Sakshi, shared touching pictures of the family event, which have since gone viral on social media. Wearing a traditional Santa Claus outfit, the legendary cricketer was seen celebrating with wife Sakshi and daughter Ziva to make the occasion joyous and memorable.
The family, draped in classic Christmas red and white, looked warm and happy as they welcomed the holiday spirit. Fans of Dhoni have been highly appreciative of his more playful side, and another such endearing moment came with the viral pictures from the cricket icon.
As the festive atmosphere prevails, cricket enthusiasts are waiting for Dhoni to return to the field for the 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The talisman of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will always be irreplaceable for the franchise. Under his leadership, CSK won a record-equalling fifth IPL title in 2023, further cementing Dhoni’s status as one of the all-time greats in the IPL.
Ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction, Dhoni was retained by CSK as an uncapped player for a pittance of Rs 4 lakh, showing his total commitment to the team and humbleness. While news about Dhoni’s retirement has been on everyone’s mind since Dhoni gave up CSK captaincy to Ruturaj Gaikwad before the start of the IPL 2024 season, it is yet to be an official declaration from the “Thala” of Indian cricket.
Fans and cricket pundits have debated Dhoni’s potential retirement. Many anticipated that the 2024 season could end his illustrious career after CSK’s triumphant IPL 2023 campaign. However, with no official word from the legend, the possibility of witnessing another “Thala” season in 2025 remains alive.
