    "editor1": "<p><strong>Mumbai, Aug 8: <\/strong>There will be no dip in M.S. Dhoni&#39;s form when the glitzy Indian Premier League (IPL) caravan touches base in the UAE, feels former India batsman Sanjay Manjrekar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Manjrekar also said he had a chat with the iconic former India captain on the sidelines of current skipper Virat Kohli&#39;s wedding, and the dashing wicketkeeper batsman had said as long as he is outrunning the fastest man in the Indian team, he will continue playing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Dhoni will lead Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 13th edition of the cash-rich league which will be played in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah after it was postponed in March due to the COVID-19 crisis. The 39-year old has not been in action since the 2019 World Cup semi-final where India lost to New Zealand.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Speaking on Star Sports&#39; show Cricket Connected, Manjrekar said: &quot;I think he is going to be very good and one of the reasons that he is so successful and so consistent in the IPL as a batsman as opposed to international is that he knows that there are about four to five bowlers to handle.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;And there are some good ones and there are some not so good ones in the IPL. In international, you have got five quality bowlers, so he&#39;s so good at picking out those guys and going after them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;And with people like (Sachin) Tendulkar, Dhoni, these are champion cricketers. Once they are on the public stage, you will never see Dhoni ever on a public stage, like a cricket field, looking slightly unfit or unable to sprint or run.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Manjrekar said he caught up with Dhoni during Kohli&#39;s wedding and the Ranchi man was oozing confidence.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;During Virat Kohli&#39;s wedding, I had a little corner time with him and he said that as long as I am beating the fastest sprinter in the team, I am going to consider myself fit enough to be playing international cricket or playing high-level cricket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;So, as a batter, with M.S. Dhoni in the IPL, I don&#39;t see much difference. In fact, the conditions that we have, I keep saying, is just perfect for Dhoni, where it&#39;s going to be about the mind and not just power hitting.&quot;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
