Mumbai: The selectors announced the team for the upcoming T20 series on Friday. The Indian team will play the T20 series against South Africa next month. Former captain and veteran wicketkeeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni was not included in this team. After this, there was speculation that the selectors were ignoring Dhoni and perhaps the time has come for his retirement. But on these things one national selector said that Dhoni has given time to prepare the team for the World T20 to be held in Australia next year.

The selector said that the time has come to put all these rumours to rest, as Dhoni, being a team player, will never come forward and discuss the issue. He said that there is no question of ignoring Dhoni. Rather, Dhoni has given us time so that we can prepare a plan keeping in mind the World T20 next year.
