"People Are Insecure At Times": MS Dhoni Intriguing Statement On Lessons In Captaincy

Along with Rohit Sharma, MS Dhoni is the most successful captain in the IPL. Both have won five IPL titles each.

MS Dhoni - one name which always comes to the mind when one speaks about captaincy in cricket. Arguably the greatest captain in world cricket, MS Dhoni is a force to reckon with in the Indian Premier League too. He is the only Indian cricket team captain to win the T20 World Cup, the ODI World Cup and the Champions Trophy too. Under MS Dhoni, India became the world No. 1 Test side also. While MS Dhoni has retired from international cricket, he still competes in the IPL for Chennai Super Kings. He led his team to the title in the IPL 2023 and will aim to emulate the feat again this year. 

Along with Rohit Sharma, MS Dhoni is the most successful captain in the IPL. Both have won five IPL titles each. 

With such a track record, when MS Dhoni speaks about leadership, one should listen wholeheartedly. On Friday, MS Dhoni spoke about leadership and captain duting an event in Mumbai. 

MS Dhoni said the respect for a leader comes from his deeds rather than words.

"I always felt that earning respect (as a leader) is important as it does not come with the chair or rank. It comes with your conduct. People are insecure at times. Sometimes, even if the team believes in you, you are actually the first person who will not believe in you," he said.
