MS Dhoni Says People Should Not Remember Him As A ‘Good Cricketer’

MS Dhoni is one person who has touched many lives. Right from the time he emerged from Ranchi in the early 2000s to make it to the Indian cricket team, and then leading the side to triumphs at the 2007 T20 Cricket World Cup and the 2011 ODI Cricket World Cup, MS Dhoni has been one figure in Indian cricket, who probably has the most fan following.

His exploits in the Indian Premier League (IPL) also speaks for itself. He has led Chennai Super Kings to five titles, including the 2023 edition.

Despite so much success, MS Dhoni’s attitude towards life is worth talking about. A nice example of it is recent video which has been widley shared on social media.

In the video, which is from an interactive session, the anchor asks MS Dhoni: “Is that hunger alive? If not, what is important to you today in life?”

“Right from the start, I was not into that ‘People should remember me as a good cricketer’. I have always said that ‘I want to be remembered as a good human being’. If you want to be a good human being, it’s a process till you die,” MS Dhoni replied.

Meanwhile, two seats at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, where Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s majestic World Cup-winning six landed in 2011, have been redesigned for the fans and given a special touch.

Sharing a photo of the new stand on X (formerly Twitter), the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) announced that the seats are part of a specially designed cabin commemorating India’s victory in the 2011 World Cup. They also revealed that the cabin has been named the “World Cup 2011 Victory Memorial Stand”.
