Former Indian captain MS Dhoni is regarded as one of the finest captains in sports history. Under MS Dhoni’s leadership, the Indian cricket team encountered one of its most prosperous periods, winning three ICC titles.
In addition, the 41-year-old has led Chennai Super Kings to five Indian Premier League (IPL) championships, with the most recent coming in the most recent IPL season. Dhoni is unquestionably one of the most renowned players in the world, and many cricket superstars look up to him.
The Indian youth Venkatesh Iyer is also among them. In a recent interview, Iyer reflected on a moment from the IPL 2023 match between Chennai and Kolkata Knight Riders. Iyer highlighted Dhoni’s masterful leadership, which led to Iyer’s dismissal from the game.
Iyer told Raj Shamani in a video on his YouTube channel, “When I was batting, I played a shot that was caught by the fielder at short third man. I thought to myself that short third man shouldn’t have been there in the first place; he was standing in the wrong position.”
“I asked him (Dhoni) ‘Bhaiya kyu’ after the game, and he replied, ‘The way you were batting, all the fielders should have been a lot more precise. “That’s why I fined him a little bit, and I never even considered it,” Iyer explained.
MS Dhoni is a master of composure: Iyer
In addition, Iyer lauded MS Dhoni for his unflappable composure and demeanour even in the most stressful situations. He also described the 41-year-old as a tranquil artist.
“I believe it’s his composure, his ability to remain calm and composed in a neutral state of mind, and his inability to react to pressure circumstances. This enables him to make better decisions; we always associate MS Dhoni with excellent decision-making because he is able to maintain a composed state of mind, as stated by Iyer.
“MS Dhoni is a master of maintaining composure and making sound decisions under duress. No one else in the world can do what he can,” he concluded.
