MS Dhoni was seen bowling in the new Dream 11 ad.
Dream11 shared a video starring MS Dhoni who is seen bowling in a street cricket match and managing to dismiss his opponent. The Dream 11 ad shows MS Dhoni using his bikes to illuminate the playing area after the batsman objects to not seeing the ball properly.

“MS Dhoni always has a bike or 5 spare, incase bad light stops play,” Dream 11 shared the video:
This led to AB de Villiers requesting the three-time IPL trophy-winning captain to bowl in the IPL 2021 instead of keeping wickets.
"Definitely prefer you bowling than keeping. New role?" tweeted de Villiers.
Meanwhile, Faf du Plessis, Dhoni’s CSK teammate reacted by reminding Dhoni of their bikes rides. "@msdhoni When are we taking your bikes out for a ride? You Promised We're a TEAM after all :P #TeamHaiTohMazaaHai #Whistlepodu," tweeted du Plessis.
AB de Villiers will be in action in the opening match of the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League in which defending champions Mumbai Indians take on RCB in Chennai on April 9. While Dhoni and Du Plessis will be in action on April 10 when CSK faces DC in Mumbai.
