Reportedly former india captain mahendra singh dhoni will take a call on his future after next year's indian Premier League (IPL), a source close to the star cricketer said, seeking to quash the endless speculation surrounding his career. Perhaps dhoni has been on a sabbatical since India's semifinal exit from the ODI world cup in england in July and he has missed the tour of the west indies and the home series against south africa and Bangladesh.

The source told "If at all MS will take a call on his future, it will only be after the IPL. You can't stop speculation as he is such a big player. He is in the best shape possible fitness-wise and has been training hard for the last one month". He added "However the number of competitive games he will play before the IPL will be decided in due course".

As per report the 38 year old, who captains chennai Super Kings in the IPL, will also skip the limited over’s home assignment against the west indies starting december 6 and comprising three t20 Internationals and an equal number of one-dayers. Moreover National selection committee chairman msk prasad has already made it clear that the panel has "moved on" and dhoni is aware of its intent to blood youngsters such as rishabh pant keeping in mind next year's t20 world cup in Australia. Perhaps recently, Pant also drew flak for poor DRS calls, something that the seasoned dhoni had aced and the veteran has played 90 Tests, 350 ODIs and 98 t20 Internationals for india, accumulating over 17,000 runs.
