Ravi Shastri Feeling On Ms Dhoni Participation In T20 WC
One of the most respected and legendary cricketers of India, MS Dhoni will begin his new chapter of life as a mentor for the Indian team.
Ravi Shastri is extremely happy with the addition of MS Dhoni and critics too think that it’ll be a combination of fire and ice with aggressive captain on-field and MS Dhoni with ice in his veins as a mentor off-pitch.
BCCI has thought this out extremely well and put the plans in place: Shastri
“The team couldn’t have asked for anything better. The BCCI has thought this out extremely well and put the plans in place. Having MS Dhoni in the dressing-room and the dugout will be a huge shot in the arm for the boys. It’s a great move,” Shastri told in an Interaction.
“It’ll be a combination of fire and ice on the field, and off it. You have a coach in Ravi Shastri who doesn’t give an inch. Now you’ll have a mentor who’s a stark opposite and is known to be extremely calm. On the field, you have a captain who loves to be aggressive in his approach, and then you have a vice-captain who tends to be more introspective. These combinations will be great,” sources said.
BCCI secretary Jay shah speaks with MS Dhoni to be the mentor and he agreed to work for T20 World Cup.
“I spoke to him (Dhoni) in Dubai. He agreed to be a mentor for World T20 only and I discussed with my colleagues and all are on the same page. I spoke to captain (Virat Kohli) and vice-captain (Rohit Sharma) and everyone agreed,” Shah said.
