Nothing Else Mattered To Me When I Was Playing For India, Says Dhoni

By IANS News February 19, 2025 • 22:00 PM View: 845

ICC T20 World Cup: Self-discipline was the cornerstone of Mahendra Singh Dhoni's life as a cricketer and the legendary India captain follows the same discipline after his retirement from the sport. It is this disciplined life that he would like to advocate to young cricketers.

Dhoni announced his retirement from all formats of international cricket in August 2020 after a stellar career which saw him win the ICC T20 World Cup in 2002, ICC Men’s ODI World Cup in 2011 and the 2013 Champions Trophy as well.

Dhoni, at an event on Wednesday, revealed his mentality from back when he was a player.
