[Saba Sports News] MS Dhoni remains one of the most revered cricketers globally, his legacy enduring as he continues to grace the Indian Premier League. Leading India to the 50-over World Cup victory after a 28-year gap has solidified his connection with fans, along with being the only captain to secure all ICC silverware. Bollywood star Ajay Devgn, a hardcore cricket enthusiast, counts himself among Dhoni’s admirers.
During the promotion of his film amidst the Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad clash, Devgn expressed his admiration for Dhoni, particularly emphasizing the enigmatic calmness and control he exudes on the field. Devgn noted that Dhoni’s presence instills hope, even in challenging situations, citing the captain’s ability to maintain composure and confidence as a source of inspiration for the entire team.
Devgn’s co-star Priyamani echoed his sentiments, asserting that Dhoni should retain his current batting position, given his exceptional performance and leadership qualities. Dhoni recently stepped down from the captaincy at CSK ahead of IPL 2024, with Ruturaj Gaikwad taking over. Despite previous experimentation with Ravindra Jadeja as captain, CSK opted for continuity, recognizing Dhoni’s invaluable contributions both as a player and a leader, including leading the young Indian team to a Gold Medal at the Asian Games 2023.
