MS Dhoni Has Trusted Me More Than West Indies Cricket Board: Dwayne Bravo

There is little doubt that MS Dhoni is a born leader. He is a natural leader of men and this has been proved a million times during his career.

Time and again, cricketers who have played under the leadership of MS Dhoni, has hailed the former World Cup-winning captain for the way he has backed them, something that proceeded to bring the best out of them.

And, Dwayne Bravo is a glaring example of it. In a recent chat with Harsha Bhogle on Cricbuzz, the West Indian all-rounder hailed MS Dhoni as one of the greatest leaders while also admitting that Dhoni has placed more faith and confidence in him as compared to the West Indies cricket board.

“It’s strange. We’re so different in so many ways. I’ve asked myself many times, why someone like MS has so much faith in me. My own board and selectors don’t have the same faith. But Mahi respects my talent and the way I play the game. That means a lot to me because this is arguably the greatest captain in the world and he has so much faith. More often than not I deliver. That’s what happens when you back someone 100 percent,” he said.
