#1 Taking responsibility and promoting young talent
"I need to blame myself. I am the leader of the side. I am the main culprit so of course, I blame myself", MS Dhoni quoted after a defeat. The former Indian skipper always took the responsibility of any defeat. He never let one of his players face criticism and took it all upon himself.
Dhoni always trusted the youngsters and his faith paid off. During his tenure at the Chennai Super Kings, Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja learned a lot of things which helped them get better. Both Ashwin and Jadeja are now an integral part of the Indian Test side.
He also backed Rohit Sharma to open the innings even after multiple failures and the Mumbai batsman broke quite a few records while opening for the Men in Blue.
