Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan shared a heart-warming message for MS Dhoni following Chennai Super Kings’ 27-run win against Delhi Capitals in the 16th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Recalling his fond memories with the legendary India skipper, Pathan posted two photos of him along with Dhoni on Twitter. “Jaha se chorte hai wahi se fir se shuru hoti hai Hamari dosti [Every time our friendship starts from where we left it]. Never been a time where we met and didn’t remember our good old days. Some funny memories comes back to the life every time we meet. MS Dhoni, Chennai Super Kings,” Irfan tweeted.

In IPL, Pathan shared the dressing room with MS Dhoni in the 2015 season. The southpaw announced his retirement from professional cricket in January 2020.
MS Dhoni, on the other hand, is now plying his trade for Chennai in IPL 2023. He currently boasts a terrific strike rate of 204.26 in this season’s IPL. In his last assignment, Dhoni pulled off a quickfire 20 off nine balls to guide Chennai to a defendable total of 167 against Delhi on Wednesday. Chennai’s Sri Lanka pacer Matheesha Pathirana picked up three wickets in the game to earn a 27-run win for the four-time IPL champions.
Chennai, under the leadership of MS Dhoni, is currently placed in second position in IPL 2023 standings. They will next be up against Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday.
