Cricket Viral Video: Even prior to MS Dhoni‘s rise as a captain, it was his batting prowess and distinctive hairstyle that captivated the attention of people globally. Dhoni made a significant impact during his debut away series against Pakistan, showing his ability to dominate the opposition bowlers. However, it was not just his batting that got appreciation, it was also his “hair” that garnered praise from the then President of Pakistan, Pervez Musharraf.
Pervez praises MS Dhoni
In the third ODI of the 2005-2006 season in Lahore, India chased a challenging target of 288. Dhoni and Yuvraj formed a dynamic batting pair, leading India to a five-wicket victory against Pakistan. While Yuvraj scored an unbeaten 79 off 87 balls, Dhoni made 72 from just 46 deliveries. Dhoni’s brilliant knock earned him the Man of the Match award.
Later, during the award distribution ceremony post-match, the then President of Pakistan, Pervez Musharraf, praised the batter for his hairstyle. The latter not only praised his cricketing skills but also offered an amusing suggestion regarding his hairstyle. Musharraf was quoted as saying, “I saw a placard which said ‘Dhoni have a haircut.’ If you want to take my opinion, you look good in this haircut. Don’t have a haircut.”

MS Dhoni maintained his long-haired look consistently for nearly two years, sporting the same hairstyle during both the 50-over and T20 World Cups in 2007.
