Gambhir said Dhoni came to the ground to watch the final match, which was special to him. He also said that it was nice to get such a message from Dhoni. If one day in the future the situation changes and Dhoni becomes the coach, and he congratulates him from outside—then it will be a matter of great joy for him. In his words, “One day if Dhoni is sitting in the dugout smiling, and I congratulate him, that’s what I want to see.”

For a long time there are many discussions about the relationship between Gambhir and Dhoni. Gambhir often commented on Dhoni, especially when he worked as an analyst before becoming a coach, which created controversy. However, the recent revelation of this positive relationship between them has brought a sigh of relief to many. Many think that it has erased the bitterness of the past.

Currently, Gambhir is in a successful position as the coach of the Indian team. He has already won two ICC trophies. Dhoni, on the other hand, has no coaching experience, but is believed to be able to work as a coach or mentor in the future. He will currently play for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2026, where they will begin their campaign against Rajasthan Royals on March 30.
