South Africa batsman Faf du Plessis has played under the captaincy of MS Dhoni at Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and knows how he operates on and off the field. MS Dhoni made a big name for himself by making the country proud with his achievements after coming from the cricketing backwaters of Ranchi. He has achieved immense success as a player and also grew up to be one of the most successful captains and achieved almost everything the ICC tournaments had to offer.

All the success has made him one of the most influential person on the cricketing circuit but he was not the same when he was first introduced to the national team. Besides that, MS Dhoni has also been the go-to man for his teammates whenever he is on the field.

MS Dhoni understands the game well. He knows the strength of the side and backs his players accordingly. He does not takes any kind of frivolous decisions and likes to maintain his calm. It is due to these qualities Dhoni comes up as one of the most calm and composed character on the cricket field.

MS Dhoni reads other player well, got an incredible gut feeling: Faf du Plessis

Faf du Plessis said MS Dhoni has got an incredible gut feeling and takes instinctive decisions. He also does not likes to speak much in the team meetings and likes to take immediate decision based on his gut feeling. It has also worked wonders for Dhoni.

“He reads the other player really well and he uses that to make instinctive decisions on the field. He’s got an incredible gut feeling on the game and I think that’s his biggest strength,” du Plessis said in a Facebook live session with Bangladesh ODI skipper Tamim Iqbal.

“It was amazing for me to see how different MS was as a captain. I used to think a captain must speak all the time in team meetings etc but MS was completely different.

“He doesn’t believe a lot in team meetings. He’s a very instinctive captain he’s got such a good cricket brain that he relies on it to make the right decisions on the field,” du Plessis added.

At present there is a lot of speculation regarding to the future of MS Dhoni. He did not feature in a match since 2019 World Cup nor has let anyone known about his future. He continues to remain silent.
