MS Dhoni is perhaps India’s most successful cricket captain of all time. The right-handed batsman from Ranchi is the only man on the planet to win the ICC T20 World Cup and ICC ODI World Cup as a captain. He is not so young now, but he is still fitter than a lot of cricketers.
The unique thing about MS Dhoni is that inspite of his on-field brilliance, the Jharkhand-based player prefers to stay calm. However, sometimes the reporters cross their limits and Dhoni silenced them in a way that only he could.
Here’s a look at the 7 instances when MS Dhoni gave epic replies to reporters in a press conference.
7.MS Dhoni on rift with Virender Sehwag
It was a common news in 2007-10 to know that MS Dhoni had a rift with Virender Sehwag in the team. The news portals often added ‘masala’ to that story and gained everyone’s attention.
In a press conference, a journalist asked him about the same ahead of the 2009 T20 World Cup. Captain Cool savagely replied him by stating:
“Maybe you should ask his physio to issue a press release.”
6.MS Dhoni’s hilarious conversation with Australian reporter
An Australian journalist named Sam Ferris asked MS Dhoni about his retirement after India’s exit from the T20 World Cup in 2016. What followed was a dream conversation for Ferris as Dhoni invited him to his seat.
‘Do you think I’m unfit?’ asked Dhoni, to which the Aussiee said no. Dhoni continued, “You think I can survive till the 2019 World Cup?” Ferris said, “Sure, Yes!” Dhoni, then, concluded, “then, you’ve answered my question!”
