Former Team India captain and Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Chennai Super Kings skipper MS Dhoni was found tilling land with a tractor at his Ranchi farmhouse on Wednesday.

The ‘Captain Cool’ posted the video on his Instagram account. In the video, the two-time World Cup-winning captain was spotted ploughing the land. It was also found in the video that another individual seated at the backend of the tractor kept supervising the legendry cricketer.

“Nice to learn something new but took way too long to finish the work,” Dhoni captioned the video.

The video has reportedly gone viral with more than 19 lakh people liking it.

Notably, wicket-keeper-batsman Dhoni isn’t much of a social media person. He likes to keep himself low profile off the field. He even doesn’t like to come to public more often and loves to spend time with his family members.

With the latest post on Wednesday, Dhoni’s Instagram post ended almost a two-year old drought.

Dhoni will wear Chennai Super Kings colours in the forthcoming IPL. It is rumoured to be his final appearance in the cash-rich league.

As per reports, IPL 2023 will commence right after the conclusion of Women’s IPL 2023. The first-ever season of Women’s Premier League will begin on March 4 and the final will be played on March 26.
