Former India skipper MS Dhoni is currently out of action, having announced his retirement from international cricket in August 2020. The veteran wicketkeeper will now be seen in action during the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Ahead of the start of the tournament, the broadcaster of the IPL, Star Sports, shared a sneak peek of MS Dhoni's new look, presumably for a promotional video, on social media. In the promos, Dhoni can be seen donning khaki shirt and pant, in what appears to be a bus driver's uniform. Â

Interestingly, Dhoni had turned himself into a monk for a few promos, ahead of the start of last season's IPL.
