#2. Big match player
MS Dhoni is undoubtedly a big match player. Bigger the platform, higher the chances of an MSD special. None comes close to his heroics in the ICC Cricket World Cup Final in 2011. Even in the semi-final against Australia in World Cup in 2015, it was only when Dhoni was dismissed that Australia thought that they had reserved a place in the finals.
Dhoni’s reputation as a finisher sometimes gets to the nerve of the bowler and they tend to make mistakes which they normally wouldn’t. It would be hard for anyone who replaces MS to continue from where he left. Another reason he shouldn’t retire just now.
