The selectors should ask Dhoni how long he will play, the former Indian captain said

Former Indian captain Mohammad Azharuddin said that the dialogue between the selectors and Mahendra Singh Dhoni would be important as it is the last leg of his fantastic career between the speculation of former captain Sannyas. Such speculation was that Dhoni, who was captain of India's two-time World Champion team after the defeat against New Zealand in the World Cup semi-final, could announce his retirement from international cricket.

Although on the eve of the selection of the West Indies tour team next month, Dhoni has kept himself 'unavailable', but immediately rejected the possibility of retirement. Asked what would be the best way to get rid of big players like Dhoni, Azharuddin said, 'A player wants to play but the selectors will have to talk about how long he will play, how he will play, what will happen.'

He said, "In the case of big players the player should also be taken into confidence and talked to him. I think there will be a decision. Otherwise people will keep writing that they should take retirement, should not take it. Because Dhoni has not made any statement. '

Most experts believe that Dhoni is no longer capable, but Azharuddin believes that he is still continuing to play international cricket if he has a will and a hundred percent fit body.



He said, 'My view is that if he is fit and playing well then he should play. If he is fit and good to perform then he can play. Sometimes it happens that after playing so much interest ends. If his interest is still 100 percent, then I think he is a good player and he should play. "

Azharuddin said that Dhoni will make the right decision when the time comes. He said, 'He has taken rest for two months. Perhaps after that he will tell what he will do. I think that whenever he does, he will make the right decision. "Even if Ambati Rayudu was not included in the World Cup squad despite being included in the list of standby, Azharuddin said," When there is a standby player when there is a need for an option So I think he should be chosen. '

He said, "If you are a selector you can deny the captain and coach's request. You can say whether we will send it to this player. When I was captain, then some players wanted in the team but the selectors refused. This happens. "Azharuddin reiterated that he will present the challenge for the post of the president of the Hyderabad Cricket Association on the election.
