Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni hasn’t given any hint on his retirement from the IPL after winning the title for the fifth time in 2023 and his loyal fans would want him to play for the Chennai franchise forever but still the day he announces to step back from playing IPL it would definitely be heartbreaking day for Dhoni and all his fans around the world and the day doesn’t look far away considering Dhoni’s age.

MS Dhoni’s stardom has been so huge that he may never come to play any small T20 leagues post his retirement but here in this article, we will have a look at such five different leagues which Dhoni may come play post his retirement from IPL.

1. Tamil  Nadu Premier League
TNPL is a T20 league played between eight different cities of Tamil Nadu, which was started in the year 2016 notably in the initial years to promote that T20 league, Dhoni was invited to a stadium in Tirunelveli by former BCCI President N Srinivasan too.

The earnings aren’t much from that T20 league, however, for the love that he has received from the fans over the years Dhoni might make his promise happen by playing his last T20 game at Chennai if he makes himself available to play the TNPL.

2. Legends League Cricket 
Legends League Cricket is played as a domestic T20 game by retired former international cricket players. The league has featured many star Indian former players like Harbhajan Singh, Yuvraj Singh, Virender Sehwag, Yusuf Pathan, Irfan Pathan, Suresh Raina, etc.

Once again considering the stardom of MS Dhoni he may not play in these domestic T20 leagues but maybe once invited we may see him playing a friendly match at least once in that league.

3. Road Safety World Series
Road Safety World Series has featured many star players across the world like Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Jonty Rhodes, Brian Lara, Kevin Pietersen, etc. This league was started on a good initiative to promote road awareness and it has seen success in the last two seasons as it got good attention from cricket fans all over the world due to the participation of star players in the league.

If MS Dhoni plays Road Safety World Series then we may see Dhoni and Sachin playing in the same team for one time.

4. US MastersT10 League
The first edition of the US MastersT10 League is all set to happen from August 18 to 27 in Florida. Many former Indian star players like Yuvraj Singh, Gautam Gambhir,  Suresh Raina, Yusuf Pathan, Robin Uthappa, etc. are about to participate in this league alongside other retired players like Chris Gayle, Shahid Afridi, Ross Taylor, etc.

With the T10 format being even quicker than the T20s, MS Dhoni could consider this as an option to play once he retires from IPL.

5. Global T20 Canada League
Global T20 Canada League which was started in the year 2018 has completed three editions so far. Notably, in 2019 the Indian star middle-order batsman Yuvraj Singh after announcing his retirement from all forms of cricket participated in the T20 league edition for the Toronto Nationals franchise. 

Global T20 league in 2023 was played for two weeks time in July-August and once again a lot of former star players like Shahid Afridi, and Chris Gayle was seen participating in it. In the future, Dhoni might consider this as a good option to play in the future.
