2017 Champions Trophy: 5 Indian middle order batsmen to look out for

India begin their Champions Trophy campaign against Pakistan

#3. MS Dhoni

Dhoni’s finishing prowess can be a nightmare for any bowler

MS Dhoni has not been as evergreen as he used to be lately but he still has a few punches left in him as he showed on a few instances during the IPL. In CT 2013, Dhoni came in to bat only twice, scoring 27 against South Africa and 0 in the final against England.

The wicketkeeper has always been known for his sublime finishing abilities and has led India to wins quite a few time. Dhoni has always been able to get the better of the best of bowlers regardless of conditions and somebody like him can never be written off.

With the mantle of captaincy not with him anymore, we can all expect MSD to bat more freely and play to the best of his abilities during the Champions Trophy.
