    What's the story

    Veteran Indian cricketer, MS Dhoni, showed his prowess on the tennis court after winning a local tournament in his hometown, Ranchi.

    The former Indian cricket team captain is enjoying his free time at home, as India and Australia engage in red-ball cricket.

    Dhoni was last seen in the ODI series against West Indies.

    He was overlooked for the T20Is against Australia and West Indies.

    T20Is

    Dhoni's T20I career could come to an end

    Dhoni was dropped from the T20I squad after a host of unconvincing performances in England and then against the West Indies.

    Rishabh Pant replaced the veteran ace in the T20I squad for the series against West Indies and Australia, last month.

    It looks like his T20I career could come to an end soon, as the Indian selectors want to groom other wicket-keepers for T20Is.

    Chennai Super Kings coach, Stephen Fleming told Gulf News, that he hopes to see Dhoni in India's World Cup squad in England.

    Quote

    Fleming thinks MS can perform at the highest level

    "I know he has targeted World Cup and the opportunity if he gets there he should. It's funny isn't it for a guy who has played so much that he still needs confidence and no fear? That is what Dhoni likes," said the Kiwi.
