#4 The master tactician in MS Dhoni
An ageing Dhoni may not be the finisher he once was, but the experience is still there. The chief architect of Indian's point-blank domination, Dhoni is one best brain in world cricket. Having vacated the captaincy, he is often seen mentoring Virat, suggesting reviews and guiding fielders. Always involved in the game, he is one of the main pillars of the side. 2019 World Cup would be his last and he would be motivated more than ever to end it on a high note. Verily, a career as good as his deserves a stupendous farewell.
Going into the World Cup with a slightly inexperienced middle order, India would not only need Dhoni for devising strategies but implementing them as well. While top order would definitely do the bulk of the scoring, Dhoni may be needed to finish games. An inform Dhoni would reduce India's woes to half!
