A rare glimpse into the emotions of MS Dhoni, known as Captain Cool, was shared by Mohit Sharma, his former teammate. During a 2014 Champions League Twenty20 (CLT20) match, a simple miscommunication regarding bowling changes led to an unexpected outburst from Dhoni. Mohit described how he started his run-up thinking he was going to bowl the over, only to discover he was mistaken, resulting in Dhoni’s visible anger. Despite the umpire’s decision that Mohit had to bowl, Dhoni expressed his displeasure. Mohit then took a wicket immediately afterwards, and even during the celebration, Dhoni’s displeasure was still apparent. Mohit also spoke about the influence Dhoni had on him, emphasizing the importance of composure under pressure, game reading, and remaining level-headed. Now with significant experience, Mohit Sharma emphasizes concentrating on the immediate future rather than long-term plans.
