India is indebted to “captain cool” Dhoni for all he has done in his career for the team, and being a team man himself, he would not be unaware of the realities of future planning.
If there is anything permanent in sport, it is the impermanence of an individual, howsoever great his contribution may have been.
His utility as a player is not in doubt as of now and to take a call on his retirement as a player should be left to him. It is the captaincy of the team that India should be more concerned with at the moment.
India play a major series with England from next month and that would be the right time for another transition to take place in Indian cricket. Let the One-day team too benefit from the passion, energy and buoyancy that Virat Kohli has invested the Indian Test team with.
