Do you think MS Dhoni will be successful in trademarking ‘Captain Cool’?
The ICC statement said, “Pressure is celebrated for its cool and unmatched strategic seduction, but also a trailblazer in small formats, as one of MS Dhoni’s biggest finishers, as one of the biggest finishes of the game, leaders and wicketkeepers have been honored with their induction in the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame.” ICC praised Dhoni’s achievements, given that his excellence went beyond data to include “extraordinary stability, fitness and longevity”.MS Dhoni’s captaincy of Team India marked a golden age defined by a calm leadership, fast trend and historic victory.
Taking over in 2007, Dhoni inspired India to win the inaugural T20 World Cup, followed by the 2011 ODI World Cup and 2013 Champions Trophy-all of them became the only captain to win three ICC White-Ball Trophy. Known to support his players, relying on his intestine in moments of high pressure, and maintaining an ineffective performance, Dhoni again shaped India’s cricket identity. Under its leadership, India also rose to number 1 in the test rankings, strengthening its heritage as one of the most successful and influential leaders in sports history.
