Former India fast bowler Zaheer Khan has expressed his opinion about CSK captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni's interests beyond cricket, saying that the World Cup-winning captain understood long ago that cricket is important, but not everything. Mahendra Singh Dhoni is all set to lead CSK in the 17th edition of the Indian IPL, starting from March 22.
talked about in an episode
It is very important to switch off from the game when you are playing, Zaheer Khan said in an episode of JioCinema's Legends Lounge. Cricket is not everything. Every cricketer has to face this eventually. When you step away from the game, you don't have many options. I have seen many athletes struggle after retirement because they gave their all to the sport and when they left it, they didn't know what to do.
Big claim about Dhoni
Zaheer Khan said, in this respect, Dhoni had understood long ago that he is fond of cricket and it is an integral part of his life, but it cannot be everything. He keeps doing things outside the game also. For example, his interest in bikes. They always keep researching on them. Under Dhoni's captaincy, CSK made the IPL playoffs 12 times in 14 seasons, cementing their position as consistent challengers for the IPL trophy.
Who will be the captain of CSK after Dhoni?
Suresh Raina said, 'The biggest question is who will be their next captain? Even if Dhoni leaves the captaincy, he will be in the dugout, be it as a mental strength coach or just for his presence, but the question is, who will he bring up? This is an important year for CSK. Who is MS eyeing? Rituraj Gaikwad is a good option.
