MS Dhoni may end his ODI career soon: Ravi ShastriÂ
Mumbai/IBNS: Indian coach Ravi Shastri has said former Indian captain MS Dhoni may soon end his One Day International career.
"He has finished his Test career, he may soon end his ODI career," Shastri told CNN-News 18.
Shastri put emphasis on how Dhoni performs in the Indian Premier League.
"So he will be left with T20, he will definitely play the IPL. One thing I know about Dhoni is that he will not impose himself on the team. But if he has a cracking IPL, well, then," he said.
"We will have to consider the person’s experience and form. They will bat in the number 5-6 position. If Dhoni plays well in IPL then he does put himself in contention," he added.
Dhoni last played for India in the semi-final match against New Zealand in World Cup final.
India, however, crashed out of the tournament after suffering defeat in the semis.
Dhoni is on a sabbatical at present.
Under his leadership, India had clinched the ICC World Cup in 2011 and World T20 in 2007.
Speaking on the issue of Day-Night Test, Shastri said: "Day-night Test is still under test. I still feel that pink ball does not give any advantage to spinners, they need to get the ball right for day night. During the day you have full Tests, by night it looks like half Test. "
