#4. The MS Dhoni factor

England & India Net Sessions
Dhoni has been the guiding force in this Indian side

The list cannot be complete without MS Dhoni. Dhoni has been the core of this Indian team. He brings all his experience, knowledge and expertise to the game. He may be having a poor run with his bat, but he is still the best in the world when it comes to wicket keeping.

Dhoni helps the bowlers in between the overs and keeps on constantly guiding them where to bowl. He has been exceptional behind the stumps with his glovework and reviews. India might be getting their reviews wrong in Test matches, but in ODIs, they get it right because of Dhoni.

Be it Kohli or Rohit, whenever, India feels that they should review, they look up to Dhoni and only after his nod the decision is made. Dhoni gets the perfect view behind the wickets and uses his cricketing skills effectively while using DRS. Hence, it comes as no surprise that fans and commentators call DRS as Dhoni Review System.
