The former World Cup-winning captain was previously seen in Indian colours during the ill-fated semi-final against New Zealand at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 in England. Since then, MS Dhoni took a break from the limited-overs series in West Indies as well as from the home series against South Africa. The cricketer was also rested from the recently-concluded limited-overs series against Bangladesh. His hiatus looks to continue as it seems highly likely that India will face Sri Lanka in January 2020 without the services of their most decorated wicketkeeper.
