Might I inform Dhoni, I noticed a placard asking you to get a haircut. If you wish to take my opinion, you look good on this haircut. Do not get a haircut,” he mentioned.
From that collection onwards, Dhoni by no means regarded again in his profession, occurring to develop into certainly one of India’s most iconic captains, who led the group to T20 World Cup glory in 2007, the ODI World Cup triumph in 2011, the ICC Champions Trophy title in 2013 and in addition enjoying a key function in making India No. 1 in Check cricket below his captaincy.
He continues to play the IPL for Chennai Tremendous Kings (CSK), having led them to 5 titles, as followers hope that their ‘Thala’ has yet one more season left in him earlier than he bids farewell to cricket.
