There are only a few cricketers in the world that has the aura as of MS Dhoni. The Jharkhand wicketkeeper-batter joined the Indian team in 2004 and by the time he retired in 2020, he ended his career at the highest level as one of the all-time greats. His tactical acumen on the ground and simplicity in life has influnced a lot of youngsters. However, not only the aspiring cricketers are a fan of the player, but also the former ones have been bowled over by the majestic Dhoni; a glimpse of which was seen when ex-India player and one of current IPL commentators Krishnamachari Srikkanth met him recently at a hotel.
Dhoni, who is still active in IPL as a player, was lauded by Srikkanth when he met him.
“I salute you, boss. I’m doing commentary here, I was doing commentary when you were hitting sixes. Superb, I tell you. Honestly, I tell you, I’m happy for you. God bless you!” Srikkanth told Dhoni.
