I am not saying I am done, not saying I am coming back: Dhoni on IPL future

Thue to his inimitable style, Mahendra Singh Dhoni kept the world guessing on his IPL future, saying he will now enjoy his bike rides in Ranchi and will take his own sweet time to decide whether he will come back next season.

Chennai Super Kings' ordinary season gave fodder to speculations that the side may go in for a complete overhaul in the coming season and the iconic Dhoni will not be around even as a batter.

"It depends. I have 4-5 months to decide, there's no hurry. Need to keep my body fit. You have to be at your best," Dhoni said after CSK's huge 83-run win over Gujarat Titans.

The 43-year-old dropped himself in the batting order, getting to hit only a few balls and could not make the desired impact this season.

So, a question about his future was inevitable after the team's last league game here. Dhoni said lack of performance can never be his reason for taking the retirement decision.
