Raina also mentioned an incident from an Indian vs Pakistan match and said,

“Once in an India vs Pakistan match, Umar Akmal complaint to Dhoni that I was abusing him. When Dhoni asked me what happened, then I said that I was just throwing a few balls and putting pressure on them. Mahi Bhai bole, aur de s**le ko (MS Dhoni asked me to put more pressure on them).

Raina went on to praise MS Dhoni’s leadership qualities. He said,

“He (Dhoni) is a very good game leader. He knows what’s going to happen next. He keeps 3 plans, Plan A, Plan B, Plan C, ready all the time. He carries all of them during the play. He strategises the things a night before and executes according to the situation, And that makes him calm and cool.”

“Like whenever he moves down to the crease and defends theball instead of hitting a shot, he actually wanrns the bowler that he has stepped and didn’t hit that means he could do it anytime, beware!,” Raina added.

MS Dhoni stepped out from the captaincy in the month of January this year. The Indian team has won three ICC trophies under his captaincy – 2007 T20 World Cup, 2011 World Cup and 2013 Champions Trophy.
