Former India captain MS Dhoni has been a trendsetter throughout his cricketing career be it on the field or off the field. While his long-hair look inspired the MS Dhoni hairstyle in India as youth flocked to hair salons to get a similar hairdo, he even received praise for his hairstyle from the former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf. With his coolness on the pitch, he has deservedly earned the nickname "Captain Cool" as he preps for yet another season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Ahead of IPL 2021, fans don't want to miss out on any information around the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper. However, Dhoni's viral "monk avatar" picture has gone viral on the internet, leaving the netizens baffled. Adding to their already curious hearts, the photo shared by Star Sports did not give a clue regarding what the look was about. Within seconds of the social media post the picture has gone viral.
