Rhiti Sports, the firm which manages Dhoni and several other Indian cricketers, posted pictures of MS Dhoni playing football on Sunday. While it was unclear what the cause of the charity was, Dhoni and Paes were wearing practice jerseys with "Playing for Humanity" written on them.
After the World Cup 2019, Dhoni had made himself unavailable for the India's tour of the West Indies as he took a two-month sabbatical from cricket to serve his territorial army unit in Kashmir.
After completing his army stint, Dhoni was pictured enjoying a game of billiards at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in his hometown of Ranchi.
Before that, the 2011 World Cup-winning captain's pictures of driving his newly-bought Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk had also gone viral.
