The IPL 2020 is about to begin as Chennai Super Kings will take on the Mumbai Indians in the season opener. The two heavyweights contested the IPL final last year in which CSK lost to MI in a last-ball thriller. Once again MS Dhoni will be the centre of attention when his franchise plays in the IPL.
Dhoni has already led CSK to three IPL title and will be aiming to make it 4 in UAE. Recently former Australia cricketer, Dean Jones hailed Dhoni for the way he conducts himself and leads CSK in the IPL. He also pointed out that Dhoni since the camp in Chennai will be instilling discipline in all the youngsters of his squad ahead of the big season.
“MS Dhoni is captain cool. He doesn’t sweat but he hasn’t played cricket for 14 months. He has had a camp back in Chennai. He is teaching some of the young guys back in quarantine some discipline because there is a lot of discipline in his game,” Jones said on ‘Star Sports’ chat show Cricket Connected.

Jones rates Dhoni very highly and regards him as one of his top 5 Indian cricketers of all time.
