MS Dhoni is known to be the best in business when it comes to captaincy, donning the wicketkeeping gloves, or finishing games. Dhoni's class runs unparallelly and over the years the former India skipper, who has led the country to three ICC titles, has mostly attracted massive praises from all corners. Dhoni also helped Chennai Super Kings (CSK) bloom as the franchise grabbed five Indian Premier League (IPL) titles under his captaincy.

As a brand new season of the lucrative T20 league is upon us, experts have already started to assemble and discuss one of the most watched competitions of the world. Harbhajan Singh, a former teammate of Dhoni, while doing the same on ESPNCricinfo called the gloveman as the best captain ever in the league and weighed-in on how his smartness has outclassed computers.

“MS Dhoni, you have heard his name; he doesn't care about what the computer is suggesting. He wore his pads and gloves, entered the field, and gave directions on the way - Bhajju paa, yahaan se, Deepak vahaan se. He knows who is going to be his next bowler; he very well knows which, when and where he has to use which card,” said Harbhajan.
