Rishabh Pant trained with MS Dhoni in Ranchi ahead of the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka.
The photo was shared by former India spinner Shahbaz Nadeem on social media.
Pant is part of the Test squad led by Shubman Gill and is coming off a poor IPL 2026 season with Lucknow Super Giants.
India need to win seven of their remaining nine Tests to keep World Test Championship final hopes alive.
Dhoni missed the entire IPL 2026 season due to injury and is reportedly considered for a mentorship role with Chennai Super Kings.
