8) MS Dhoni
Although MS Dhoni’s batting prowess is on the decline, the former Indian captain has maintained his fitness and has even said he’ll continue in the IPL as long as he feels his body is physically ready. At 39-years-old, many athletes would have retired from professional sports but not Dhoni.
He is considered to be one of the fittest and fastest players to have ever played the game. His importance to fitness was visible when he dropped a few seniors from the team, right after he became the captain of the national team. Players like Jadeja and Kohli have followed in Dhoni’s footsteps regarding fitness.
