#2 India's spinners shine under Dhoni's guidance
The Indian spinners need the cricketing mind of Dhoni.
Last year when India toured South Africa, the home team was completely outplayed in the ODIs. A lot had to do with India's spin twins Kuldeep and Chahal bamboozling the Proteas batsmen. And Dhoni did play his part by constantly guiding the young spinners.
Ravindra Jadeja was not in India's limited-overs scheme of things. But during last year's IPL, Mahi made Jadeja bowl his quota of overs to brilliant efficiency. Now Jadeja is back to the limited overs India side again.
Kohli loves his fast bowlers while Dhoni always prefers trial by spin. He understands game situations perfectly and has the ability to extract the maximum out of his spinners.
The Indian spinners themselves have acknowledged how much Mahi's reading of the pitch and conditions help them bowl better.
