MUMBAI (India): Former cricket captain MS Dhoni will not charge any fee for mentoring the Indian cricket team during this month’s T20 World Cup in the UAE and Oman, BCCI President Sourav Ganguly said on Tuesday.
The iconic former captain was brought in as mentor by the BCCI last month when it announced the squad for the mega-event, scheduled to start October 17.
“Dhoni will not charge anything to mentor the Indian team,” Ganguly said.
The 40-year-old played his last India game at the 2019 World Cup semifinal, which they lost to New Zealand.
Dhoni was brought in for his experience in devising near-perfect white ball strategies. He led his franchise Chennai Super Kings into the IPL finals on Sunday.
