@Source: odishatv.in
MS Dhoni is widely regarded as one of the sharpest minds in cricket. His tactical field placements ability to read a batterrsquos intentions and brilliance behind the stumps distinguish him from his peers. He remains the only captain to have won the ODI World Cup T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy. Beyond international cricket Dhoni has also guided Chennai Super Kings CSK to five IPL titles. Players who have played under his leadership often show remarkable improvement leading many to believe he would succeed as a coach as well. At present Dhoni has not officially retired from cricket and continues to represent CSK though questions remain about how long his body can withstand the demands of the game. Itrsquos possible the most recent IPL season may have been his last. The question arisesmdashwill Dhoni ever consider becoming Indiarsquos head coach? Former teammate Aakash Chopra thinks otherwise. According to him coaching does not fit Dhonirsquos philosophy. ldquoThatrsquos a big one. I donrsquot think he is interested. Coaching is toughmdashit keeps you just as busy as playing sometimes even more. After spending your life travelling out of a suitcase you may not want to continue doing the same with a family to look afterrdquo Aakash explained on his YouTube channel. Chopra feels Dhoni is more likely to remain connected with CSK possibly from the dugout rather than take on the demanding role of Indiarsquos head coach. ldquoThatrsquos why many players prefer coaching in the IPLmdashit lasts just a couple of months. But being Indiarsquos full-time coach means a 10-month commitment. Irsquod be surprised if Dhoni agrees to thatrdquo he added.
