Cricket Players'Spirit of Cricket': MS Dhoni interacts with Pakistan players after side's crushing win over India; ICC shares video
MS Dhoni interacted with Pakistan players after the Babar Azam-led side registered a historic 10-wicket win over India in the T20 World Cup group game in Dubai.
Over the course of the 2021 Indian Premier League, a common sight was that of Mahendra Singh Dhoni having a chat with youngsters from the opposition after the match, providing them tips and advice on their game. Now, even as Dhoni assumed the role of Team India's mentor for the T20 World Cup, the former Indian skipper continues to remain the most sought-after figure among the opposition players.
On Sunday, Dhoni was seen interacting with Pakistan captain Babar Azam, all-rounder Imad Wasim and former skipper Shoaib Malik, among other members of the side following Pakistan's crushing 10-wicket win over India in Group 2 game in Dubai.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) shared the video of the interaction on their official Instagram profile. "This is the true story of India-Pakistan cricket outside all the hype and posturing. #SpiritOfCricket #T20WorldCup," the ICC wrote.
