Dhoni shows super quick reflexes behind the stumps

If Virat Kohli is the fitness freak of the Indian team, former captain MS Dhoni is not far behind. Though he does not show it, he too follows a strict fitness routine.

Dhoni has stayed injury-free for most parts of his career. It was only in 2013 and 2014, he was a bit unfortunate. In 2013, in the first match of the Tri-series in the West Indies, Dhoni injured his right hamstring while batting. While he was ruled out of the entire series, he made an unlikely comeback in the final and scored a match-winning 45 to help India clinch the Tri-series.

Before this injury, he played a staggering 344 games (all formats), the most by any player since his debut. In February 2014, Dhoni suffered a side strain which he had picked up in New Zealand and this which resulted in him missing the entire Asia Cup. In November 2014, he suffered a hairline crack in his thumb and he missed the ODI series against Sri Lanka and the first Test of India’s tour of Australia.

Dhoni, who is in the twilight of his career, gives a lot of importance to fitness and is expected to feature in the 2019 World Cup as well.
