Currently, MS Dhoni is enjoying his vacation as India are playing tests against Sri Lanka. He will return for ODI and T20I series which starts on December 10. Earlier this month, MS Dhoni was in UAE for the launch of his MS Dhoni Cricket Academy. He has teamed up with Pacific Sports Club and Aarka Sports Club in this venture.
Speaking to Khaleej Times there, he talked about how he handles criticism.”The biggest motivation is being a part of the Indian cricket team. You have seen cricketers who are not god-gifted, but even then, they have gone far. That”s because of the passion. The coaches need to find that out. Everybody doesn”t play for the country.” he said

“I have always believed that process is more important than results. I never thought about results, I always thought what is the right thing to do at that point in time whether it”s 10 runs needed, 14 runs needed or 5 runs needed. I was always so engrossed in the process that I never took the burden of thinking what if the results don”t go my way.” he further added.
