MS Dhoni: Gautam Gambhir talks a lot about his former skipper publicly and most of the time these comments are to criticize the obsessed fanbase. And because of that, there is a notion that he has some gripe with Dhoni.
But the pair have played alongside each other for a very long time. They have saved the team many times in the past and that creates a brotherhood. Both of these players have respect for each other.
That is why Gautam Gambhir also knows how important MS Dhoni was for the Men In Blues. He recently stated that Dhoni was a blessing for the Indian team and sacrificed a lot so that the team could thrive.
MS Dhoni Revilutinze Wicket Keeping
In a show on Star Sports, Gautam Gambhir stated that “MS 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,” he further added.
Sacrifice For The Team!
Gambhir also talks about how the former Indian skipper was selfless and sacrificed lots of records for the team. “If MS would have batted at No 3, I am sure he could have broken several ODI records,” Gambhir stated.
“People always talk about MS Dhoni and his achievements as a captain, which is absolutely true. But I feel due to captaincy, he sacrificed the batter in him, and he could have achieved much more with his bat which he didn’t. And this happens when you are a captain because then you put the team ahead, and you forget about yourself.”
“He started batting at No 6 or 7. If he had not been captain, he would have been India’s No 3, and I think he could have scored more than what he has scored and could have scored more hundreds also.”
