Former Indian captain, MS Dhoni celebrated his 39th birthday at his Ranchi home, this month on July 7. The wicketkeeper-batsman has not left his farmhouse since the nationwide lockdown began in late March with rising cases of COVID-19 pandemic.
It was expected that Dhoni's birthday celebration would be a low-key affair this year as it would be difficult for his teammates to join him with the travel restrictions in place. But to everyone's surprise, the Pandya brothers, Hardik and Krunal flew all the way to Ranchi to be with him. Krunal's wife Pankhuri also joined the duo.

The fans were hoping to see some pictures and videos from the celebrations, but to everyone's disappointment nothing came about on social media. However on Tuesday (July 21), Sakshi, wife of MS Dhoni, took to Instagram to share an unseen pic while saying that she misses the 'happy squad'. Here is the post:
MS Dhoni, Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya will now begin their preparations for IPL 2020 which is set to be played in the UAE, after ICC formally postponed the T20 World Cup 2020 on Monday (July 20) due to the pandemic.
BCCI is yet to confirm the dates but it is being reported that the cash-rich T20 league will be played between September 26 and November 8, if the Indian government grants permission to the board to shift the league outside the country.
