Former Indian cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni welcomed the New Year not in India, but in Thailand, enjoying a private celebration with his family. Dhoni’s wife, Sakshi, shared a photo on Instagram showing the “Captain Cool” with his family in festive spirits. Notably, Dhoni’s daughter Ziva was also seen after a long time, delighting fans who have long followed her childhood photos and videos online.
Party Mood in Phuket
The photo, shared by Sakshi, was taken in Phuket, Thailand, capturing the family in a celebratory mood. Dhoni and Sakshi wore golden-themed party caps, while Sakshi looked stunning in a golden western gown. The post was captioned simply: “Wishing everyone a Happy New Year.” Fans were thrilled to see Ziva, now grown up, making a public appearance.
MS Dhoni’s IPL Comeback
Having retired from international cricket and no longer playing domestic matches for Jharkhand, Dhoni’s on-field presence is now mostly limited to the Indian Premier League (IPL). Fans eagerly await March when IPL 2026 begins, as Dhoni has been seen rigorously preparing for the season, with videos from the JSCA Stadium in Ranchi going viral recently.
Potential Final IPL Season
Dhoni, 44, has long captained the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), passing leadership first to Ravindra Jadeja and then to Ruturaj Gaikwad last season. Due to Gaikwad’s injury, Dhoni resumed captaincy mid-season. With ongoing knee issues and advancing age, IPL 2026 could be Dhoni’s final season, as hinted by CSK coach and former New Zealand captain Stephen Fleming during IPL 2026 auction discussions. Fans can expect an emotional and memorable season as the legend prepares to take the field once more.
