Akash Chopra has told some fun stories related to Dhoni many times, which have rarely heard before. Akash Chopra once told on Jio cinema how Dhoni was completely different from all other cricketers and was very shy. Actually, India-A team went on a tour of Zimbabwe in 2004. Dhoni was also in the Indian team then and went to Zimbabwe. At that time both Akash Chopra and Mahendra Singh Dhoni went. There, Akash Chopra and Dhoni were staying in the same room at the hotel. Both were roommates.
Akash Chopra told Dhoni that, there was a talk between us about the light off, Dhoni told me that, ‘Should stop the light whenever you want.’ Therefore, for the entire tour, Dhoni slept at 9:30 pm. I did not know at all, when Dhoni used to sleep in general, but being in my room, Dhoni used to sleep at 9:30 pm because I wanted to sleep early. ‘
Akash Chopra further said, ‘If I used to ask Dhoni about ordering food, Dhoni never picked up nor ordered. Dhoni was not a vegetarian but Dhoni had to eat the veg due to me, despite not wanting. Dhoni was very shy. Whenever Dhoni used to go down and used to eat only pastries to fill his stomach because he was only getting lentils with me.
Akash Chopra further said that Dhoni has also been a big hearted person and he never considered his team mates as his rival. Akash Chopra recalled the one -time anecdote and said that Dhoni used to bowl Dinesh Karthik in the nets. I used to ask Dhoni, ‘Why are you doing this? He is your competition. ‘ Dhoni used to say, ‘No, he is not my competition. If you want to bat, you can definitely do this. I just want to bowl. “
The stories of Dhoni’s stump Mike have also become quite viral. Once a fun comment of Dhoni went viral which he spoke to Sreesanth. Dhoni once explained Sreesanth while setting the field from behind the wicket. Then MS Dhoni was heard saying in the stump mike that, “OA is not a girlfriend there, come here a little.”
Sunil Gavaskar also shared a funny anecdote associated with Dhoni. Sunil Gavaskar wrote in his column that, ‘There is a good practice in the Indian team for domestic matches to reward his players. Most of the cricket fans will know that in the Indian Domestic International season, both teams get special chartered flights to move from one place to another. Technical TV crew also go together in the flight, who take big cables for the next match. Actually, business class has limited seats and these seats are given to captains, coaches and team managers. Here, who performs well in the last match, is given the option to sit in business class instead of economy. But Mahendra Singh Dhoni used to sit in very few business classes. Even when Dhoni was a captain, he preferred to sit with TV coverage, where there were also cameraman and sound engineers.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni gets very little anger. Mostly he is known for his cool style. But once Dhoni was seen getting very angry at Deepak Chahar. This was revealed by the player of the Indian team Mohit Sharma.
Mohit Sharma stated an interesting anecdote and said that when MS Dhoni had fiercely classified CSK fast bowler Deepak Chahar. So it was really different. Mohit revealed in a conversation during a podcast that, during a match in the IPL, CSK player Deepak Chahar was having a lot of difficulty in copying the ball. Deepak had put a copy ball on which the boundary was installed. After this, MS Dhoni advised Deepak Chahar that, now you do not use this ball.
However, Deepak Chahar again threw a copy ball after 2-3 balls and the ball got up from the batsman’s head. Actually, Deepak Chahar was playing in a 2019 IPL match, I was out. There was a competition in Chennai and everyone was very upset with the heat there. Deepak Chahar put a copy ball which was a full toss, which was hit by a batsman or a six. Dhoni Bhai went to Deepak Chahar and said, do not put this ball again. But Deepak Chahar again threw a copy ball after 2-3 balls which went out of the batsman’s head. Mahi bhai then came to Deepak Chahar, put his hand on his shoulder and said something. We were unaware of what the conversation between the two must have happened.
Mohit Sharma said that, when we asked what happened after the match was over, Deepak Chahar said that Dhoni Bhai said to him that ‘I am not stupid, I am stupid.’ Dhoni used to love a lot with Bhai Bhai Deepak Chahar too much. Deepak Chahar also revealed in an interview that, during a match, Mahi Bhai was shouting a lot at me. Then after the match, when I asked, why do you get so much anger on Mahi Bhai, then Dhoni Bhai said with Hans that, I am angry at you, so I also love you the most.
