The former international cricketer spent most of his time in lockdown, playing games like PUBG, which was revealed by his wife Sakshi Dhoni during an Instagram Live chat session.

"PUBG retired before Dhoni could retire from PUBG," a user mentioned.

"DHONI knew PUBG would be banned in India. So he flew to UAE (sic)," wrote another user.
