Divya Delhi: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has reportedly approached legendary former captain MS Dhoni to serve as a mentor for the national team ahead of the 2026 T20 World Cup.This isn't the first time Dhoni has been considered for the role; he previously mentored the team during the 2021 T20 World Cup. Although India didn't advance past the group stage that year, many players credited him with providing valuable insights and a morale boost. The BCCI believes his tactical brilliance and experience in high-pressure situations could be crucial for a team aiming to defend its title.However, it's uncertain whether Dhoni will accept the offer. One major potential hurdle is the presence of Gautam Gambhir, the new head coach. While the two cricketing legends share respect, their contrasting on-field approaches could lead to clashing ideologies, making Dhoni hesitant to take on a role that might cause friction.The timing is also significant as there are strong indications that Dhoni may retire from all forms of cricket after the IPL 2026 season. Taking on the mentorship role could serve as a fitting prelude to his final professional season. As fans await his decision, the question remains whether "Captain Cool" will return to the Indian dressing room to lend his expertise or focus solely on his last IPL campaign.
