Ever since his retirement in August 2020, Dhoni is often seen spending quality time with his family in his hometown of Ranchi. He was recently seen driving a tractor to plow the field at his farmhouse.
Last month, Dhoni also attended the first T20I between India and New Zealand at the JSCA Stadium in Ranchi.
He also announced the first feature film of his production house – Dhoni Entertainment Private Limited (DEPL) in January.

In 2021, MS Dhoni confirmed that he wants to play his last T20I in Chennai. Speaking at an event in Chennai, he said:
"I have always planned my cricket. My last home game, the ODI version, was in Ranchi. Hopefully, my last T20 will be in Chennai. Whether it's next year or in 5 years' time, we don't really know.”

The 41-year-old will once again lead his franchise Chennai Super Kings (CSK) after all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja relinquished his captaincy mid-season in IPL 2022. The franchise has bought the likes of Ben Stokes and Kyle Jamieson ahead of IPL 2023.
With quality all-rounders like Moeen Ali, Jadeja and Stokes in the franchise, CSK will aim to lift their fifth trophy to level up with Mumbai Indians (MI) for most IPL titles.
