00:00Virat Kohli is a terrific leader of men, but any time you can have the experience of an

00:04MS don't need to help Virat when the pressure's on.

00:30It's very easy to captain a side when things are going well, but when it's tough, you need

00:33those experienced guys on your side, like an MS don't that's got some thoughts you might

00:37not have thought of as a captain,

00:39so just bring them all in.

01:00So to me MS Dhoni is a great player, a must have player in your side.

01:05He can bat anywhere from 4, 5, 6, 7, whatever the team needs.

01:08He's versatile, he's adaptable and anyone criticising MS Dhoni has absolutely no idea

01:13what they're talking about.

01:14This guy is a class act, Indians need him in the World Cup, they need his experience,

01:19they need his leadership skills on the field to help Virat Kohli as well.

01:23I still think there's room for Rishabh Pant.

01:26I think Pant can play as a batsman and MS Dhoni is the captain.

01:29I'm very surprised India haven't picked Rishabh Pant.

01:33For me MS Dhoni is a huge tick and a must have in your side.
