India’s World Cup-winning captain added in the video that he tried playing like Sachin but later realised that his style of play was different and he could not play like him.
“Growing up when I was your age, I used to watch him play and always thought I wanted to play like him but couldn’t. Inside in my heart I always wanted to play like him, he was a cricketing idol growing up,” answered Dhoni.
Dhoni was last seen in IPL 2022 playing competitive cricket and he has confirmed his participation in IPL 2023.
