Harbhajan opened speculation on Thursday concerning the future of M.S. Dhoni and said he felt the former Captain of India should not wear the Indian Jersey. After losing to New Zealand in the semifinals last year, Dhoni had been off cricket since the Indian World Cup campaign culminated. He was supposed to return to the Indian Premier League this year for Chennai Super Kings, but the tournament has been postponed indefinitely following the pandemic of coronavirus.
Harbhajan said, "As soon as I'm in Chennai Super Kings Camp, people ask me about Dhoni, and I'm told about vice-captain Rohit Sharma on Instagram living. It's up to him, and I don't know. Whether he wants to play again for India, you need to know.
