However, Dhoni has now stated that the duo were colleagues when they played for India and they do not get a chance to meet very often. However, Dhoni has stated that whenever they do get a chance to meet, they go aside and chat for some time.

Speaking at an event in Hyderabad, quoted by ANI, MS Dhoni said, "We have been colleagues who played for India for a very long time. He (Kohli) has been amongst the best when it comes to world cricket. And the fact that I could bat a lot with him during the middle overs was a lot of fun because we used to take a lot of twos and threes in the game, so it has always been fun. It is not like we meet very often, but whenever we get a chance, we make sure that we go on the side and chat for sometime, we will talk about what is going on, so that is our relationship,"

Dhoni retired from international cricket following Team India's defeat in the semi-finals of the ODI World Cup 2019, and was last seen playing for Chennai Super Kings during IPL 2024. While there was a lot of speculation that Dhoni would retire after this year's IPL, 'Thala' has now confirmed that he will decide on his IPL future closer to last year's mega event.
