"Wo to keh rahe hain main trophy jeetke ek saal aur khelunga (After winning the trophy, I will play one more year)," Raina said -- followed by sarcastic laughs -- while speaking on JioCinema.
Raina added, "I think he will play the way Danny Morrison asked him at the toss and he (Dhoni) said you are deciding it for me. I think he is looking good and batting really well. I think it's for IPL or Indian cricket, he should continue playing. The Dhoni ki pathshala after every match is very important. A lot of players are learning from him and retirement is his call."
Dhoni has over 5,000 runs (5,054) in 244 IPL games at a strike rate of 135.86 along with 24 half-centuries. He has also accounted for most dismissals by a wicketkeeper in the tournament (178) and led the Yellow Army to four IPL titles (second-most).
