Read More Kalinga Express Kuwait finds itself at a crossroads following the demise of its leader, Sheikh Nawaf, at the age of 86.

Assuming that such an announcement has been made, the decision to retire or honor a jersey number in cricket holds significant symbolic value. In the case of MS Dhoni, jersey number 7 is not just a numerical identifier; it is a symbol that represents the legacy and leadership of one of India's most successful cricket captains.
