Former Indian Cricket team captain Mahendra Sinh Dhoni has revealed the reason why he had stepped down from the role of Indian ODI team captain. After the departure of Saurav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid became the India captain. Later spin wizard Anil Kumble was made of the Test team alone.
However, they did not get the right team composition or the time to make the team shine. Though they had lead the team to success in several matches, their captaincy did not last long. When India was in a pathetic position, Dhoni had lead India in T 20 and won the T20 world cup as well, following which he was made the captain of all three formats.
All of a sudden, Dhoni had
announcement his retirement from test cricket, when India did not play well in
Australia test series, and then in 2016, had quit captaincy of ODI team as
well. He has now revealed that he wanted the next captain of Indian ODI team to
have adequate time to prepare for the 2019 world cup and that was why he had
retired in advance, and this proves Dhoni was a best captain.
