Had My Differences With MS Dhoni. But...": India Great's World Cup-winning Teammate Opens Up On Their Relationship

 MS Dhoni is an enigma in Indian cricket. His rise from a non-traditional cricket centre to becoming one of the most successful captains in world cricket is a stuff of legends. As the Indian cricket team skipper, Dhoni won two Cricket World Cups - the 2007 T20 Cricket World Cup and the 2011 ODI Cricket World Cup. As another Cricket World Cup is round the corner, the Indian cricket fans would be hoping of the Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team to emulate the success of MS Dhoni's side. 

Former Indian cricket team fast bowler Sreesanth was a member of both the side which won the 2007 T20 Cricket World Cup and the 2011 ODI Cricket World Cup Recently, on Sportskeeda, Sreesanth opened up on MS Dhoni's role and his way of working. "I also had my differences with Dhoni bhai. But now when I look at cricketing side of things, no one can say that Dhoni didn't back them. There are some situations which made the captain think the other way, and that's how life is."

"It will be a bit controversial when I say this. Yes you can say 'Why to talk only about 2-3 players? We also played our part in the win.' But it's just about the way Dhoni thought about the team first all the time. He even started the culture of giving the cup to the newest person in the team. He never wanted the limelight. He always wanted the team to do well," he added.

MS (Dhoni) was the first wicketkeeper of India who could change the game with his batting. Earlier, they were keepers first and batters later, but MS was batter first and then was a wicketkeeper. It was a blessing for Indian cricket that in MS Dhoni, we got a wicketkeeper-batter who can win you matches from No 7, because he had that power game. If MS would have batted at No 3, I am sure he could have broken several ODI records," said Gambhir on Star Sports.
