MS Dhoni is one of the best cricketing brains in the world without the shadow of any doubt. He possesses a wealth of experience about the game and has shown time and again that he is a visionary. He totally changed the entire complexion of Indian cricket by guiding the team to three different ICC titles.
Under his guidance, India won the T20 World Cup, ODI World Cup and Champions Trophy. Besides that, India have also won two Asia Cups. He called it quits from international cricket back in late August 15, 2020.
However, he has been actively plying his trade for Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League. Under his guidance, CSK have won four IPL titles and are looking forward to targeting the fifth IPL title in the ongoing IPL 2023 season.
As things stand, they are on top of the IPL 2023 points table with five wins and two defeats. They will lock horn with Rajasthan Royals tonight at Sawai Mansingh Indoor Stadium in Jaipur in Rajasthan.
MS Dhoni’s inputs played a crucial role in Ajinkya Rahane’s selection for the WTC Final
Recently, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced the 15-man squad for the upcoming World Test Championship Final 2023 against Australia. The Indian cricket fraternity was taken aback by Ajinkya Rahane’s selection.
Now, get ready to know the reason behind Ajinkya Rahane’s selection. Notably, MS Dhoni’s inputs played a big part in Ajinkya Rahane’s selection for the WTC Final.
In fact, it was MS Dhoni’s inputs were taken by the Indian team management and selection committee before recalling Ajinkya Rahane for the WTC Final as reported by TOI.
Ajinkya Rahane has been superb touch with the bat since the last year as he has been scoring runs on a consistent basis. He was in red-hot form in Ranji Trophy and possesses the highest strike-rate by any batsman in the IPL 2023 with over 200.
He and his opinions are more valuable than complete selection committee 🙌🫶 https://t.co/WJ6BZPELE7

The Indian team wanted to make sure they had the best players for the World Test Championship Final, so they asked MS Dhoni for his opinion before bringing back Ajinkya Rahane.
