The most striking moment of the game was when MS Dhoni met Sachin Tendulkar ahead of the toss. The Master Blaster is the mentor of the Mumbai Indians. MS Dhoni and Sachin Tendulkar share a lovely bond. MS Dhoni has already mentioned many times in his career, that he started playing cricket looking at Sachin Tendulkar. On the other hand, Sachin Tendulkar was the first person to mention MS Dhoni’s name as a captaincy option. He also revealed that Dhoni is the best captain he has played under.
