In a surprising change of tone, Yograj Singh, father of former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh, has praised MS Dhoni, calling him a fearless and motivated captain. Yograj, who has often criticized Dhoni in the past, acknowledged the former Indian skipper’s exceptional qualities during an interview on “Unfiltered by Samdish” on YouTube.

Yograj shared an incident to highlight Dhoni’s courage and mindset. He recalled how Dhoni was hit on the helmet by Mitchell Johnson during a match in Australia but stood his ground and hit the next ball for a six.

“Such fearless people are very rare,” said Yograj, appreciating Dhoni’s calm and bold nature. He also praised Dhoni’s ability to guide bowlers and read pitches effectively.

MS Dhoni’s Legacy as a Captain

Dhoni is regarded as one of India’s most successful captains. Under his leadership, India won all three major ICC trophies—the 2007 T20 World Cup, the 2011 ODI World Cup, and the 2013 Champions Trophy. He is the only captain in history to achieve this feat.

Yuvraj Singh, who played a crucial role in the 2007 and 2011 World Cup victories, shared many memorable partnerships with Dhoni during their time in the Indian team. The duo often delivered under pressure and helped India win important matches.

While Yuvraj retired in 2019, Dhoni bid farewell to international cricket in 2020. However, Dhoni continues to play for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the IPL. He has led CSK to five IPL titles, sharing the record for the most championships by a team. Dhoni remains a fan favorite and a key figure in the CSK setup.

Yograj’s recent remarks show a new perspective on Dhoni, emphasizing his remarkable qualities as a cricketer and leader who inspired a generation of players.
