His men get the message without Dhoni uttering a word. Even on those occasions when he defends with the willow, his methods rarely appear negative.
He is a tactically sound captain but does not believe too much in theories. Perhaps, this X factor has a lot to do with confidence.
Dhoni’s enormous self-belief comes through forcefully in his game. Even during stressful situations, his visage does not reflect any strain. The intensity in his cricket shines through and he does have a strong physical presence on the field. The strength in his frame, though, is bettered by the toughness of his mind.
The first Wealthsurance Cup ODI at Dambulla was in the balance when Dhoni walked in. Sri Lanka was now up against a great barrier. It was Dhoni’s confidence factor at work again. Time and again, he has proved a road-block for the opposition in the middle-order.
