Even though MS Dhoni has been made the mentor of Team India for the T20 World Cup 2021, the former captain Dhoni is not looking forward to the post of head coach of Team India because he is still playing professional cricket from which he is not retiring.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni as the mentor of Team India for the T20 World Cup 2021.
Following the BCCIs decision, there was speculation that MS Dhoni could be the next head coach of the Indian team as the tenure of current head coach Ravi Shastri ends after the T20 World Cup this year. However, speculations about Dhoni becoming the head coach have now come to an end.
