Rahane emphasized Dhoni’s influential presence, both on and off the field, highlighting the invaluable lessons players have absorbed from him throughout the season.
“In a different perspective, when we are travelling everywhere just because of one man, we are playing a home match just because of Mahi Bhai (MS Dhoni). That’s a wonderful feeling, obviously. When we are playing with him, so many things you can learn as a cricketer, as a human being, how he conducts himself.”
“Mumbai guys, Maharashtra guys playing in CSK, the atmosphere which we have in the dressing room within the group is fantastic,” Rahane remarked, reflecting on the positive environment Dhoni creates within the team.
Dhoni’s magnetic charisma continues to draw unwavering support from fans, particularly following CSK’s recent triumph over the Kolkata Knight Riders. Excitement mounts for the impending clash against the Mumbai Indians.
