This South African player played for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL-2022 (IPL 2022), whose captain was Mahendra Singh Dhoni (MS Dhoni) and while with this team, this player has learned many things from Dhoni. .
The focus of the world of cricket has now shifted from IPL to international cricket. The Indian team is also now ready for international battle and its next enemy in this war is South Africa. The five-match T20 series between India and South Africa (Ind vs SA) is starting from June 9. The first match of this series will be played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The South African team will try their best to make this series their name. And one of its players has learned such nuances from Mahendra Singh Dhoni which can prove to be a headache for India. This player is Dwaine Pretorius.
Pretorius has recently played in IPL-2022. In this league, he was a part of Dhoni’s captaincy Chennai Super Kings. During this time, he learned such nuances of the game from Dhoni that made Dhoni great and intimidated other teams. That’s the only danger. What will happen to India if Pretorius implements Dhoni’s teachings?
Great experience of IPL
Pretorius played six matches for Chennai. He scored 44 runs along with taking six wickets. Of course Pretorius played fewer matches but he said that his experience was great. He said, “Playing my first IPL was a good experience for me. It was on my bucket list to play for Chennai, which is the most successful franchise. I enjoyed every moment of it. As a player, a lot of responsibility falls on you.
Learn to keep calm from Dhoni
Pretorius said that he has learned to be calm at the crease from Dhoni. He said, “I enjoyed playing under Dhoni. As well as batting with him. It was wonderful to be a part of this team seeing his brand value in India, what he has done in the cricket of the country. The biggest thing I learned from Dhoni is to stay calm at the crease. The way he removes the pressure from himself and puts it on the bowler. He made me realize that there is actually pressure on the bowler in the last overs. He believes that he can do everything and I will try to bring his calmness and confidence in my game.
Dhoni had shown his old form this season and if Pretorius took that form, then India’s fate is certain.
