MS Dhoni has always been the bowler's captain in white cricket and his presence as a team advisor to the T20 World Cup will greatly benefit Jasprit Bumrah and others, he feels like opening India's Virender Sehwag. Dhoni was recently appointed as a major event consultant by BCCI. "I am very happy that MS has accepted the application to become a T20 World Cup Team Mentor. I know that many people want MS to return to the Indian cricket field and be arrested as a mentor is the best thing that has ever happened," Sehwag told PTI in a special interview.
Sehwag, who has played for Dhoni for ten years, knew how much power he had as captain and that was to understand his mind throwing them in a limited overs format.
"As a goalkeeper, MS has been different in his understanding of the layout of the stadium and this is something that will help the bowling alley in this World Cup. The bowlers can pick up his brain and get some useful tips in arranging a batsman," the opening game of the previous game said.
In Sehwag, there can be no better 'mentor' than Dhoni when it comes to young, irrational players and need someone to lead them as they try to present themselves on the field.
"There are always players on either side of the world, who are shy and reluctant to step up to their captain's cricket start.
While the BCCI has announced a 15-member team with three reserves, Sehwag believes that with the ICC offering a transfer window until October 10, there could still be a place for the best players, who missed the bus.
"100%. We still have at least seven team games left. That means you still have a stadium to do and the finalists can still impress the Indian selectors who will be watching the tournament closely.
"Since the ICC allows the transfer window, I would not be surprised if there are changes in the first team," Sehwag said.
Commenting on Virat Kohli, Sehwag said Kohli owes at least one IPL trophy to Bangalore as he loves fans who follow him so closely.
"The IPL is important to all captains but I think a lot of Virat like most of its fans, everyone wants Virat to win the Bangalore right.
"This has been an unusual year for the stadium due to the epidemic and who knows if it could be a different year for Bangalore last season and they continue to win this trophy," Sehwag said.
Like the last type of IPL in the UAE, the Sehwag also heard that Mumbai and Delhi are favorites to win the tournament.
"With the second round being extended to Dubai and Abu Dhabi, I think Delhi and Mumbai will once again be favorites and those five-time champions are a little ahead," he said.
Sehwag thinks the lines in the UAE will slow down and thus Chennai and Bengaluru could face some problems.
"Chennai's average price in India was 201 in the first round but I think when it comes to UAE songs, they would be a bit short of winning firefighters. If I had to choose one team, that would be Mumbai."
He said in Kennai, after such a long gap, it could take "many more games" to stabilize and get into the "hole".
Asked which players he would be looking forward to in the next four weeks, Sehwag selected four strikers.
"My first choice is Ishan Kishan followed by Devdutt Padikkal, KL Rahul and Sanju Samson. I will take a good look at these four. of T20, '' add.
The interview was hosted by "Flipkart Video for Power Play with Champions".
The show will take viewers through the prediction of the upcoming cricket tournament, which will not only give them a chance to test their knowledge of their favorite game, but also give them a chance to win exciting prizes.
Commenting on the program, Sehwag said, "I had a great time last year at Flipkart Video Power Play with Champions and half of the season we did earlier this year."
