New Delhi, Jan 20: The jury is still out on whether Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s much acclaimed finishing powers are on the wane or not but former Australia captain Ian Chappell still considers the World Cup winning former skipper as the “best finisher” in 50-over format.
Dhoni was recently awarded the Man of the series for his match-winning knocks which helped India win their maiden ODI series in Australia.
Chappell saluted the former India skipper’s nerve and longevity.
“Nobody has Dhoni’s nerve for finishing off victories. Many times I’ve thought, “He’s left it too late this time”, only to be amazed as he produced a couple of powerful shots to bring India a nail-biting victory,” Chappell wrote in his column in ESPNcricinfo.
“His outward calm is no illusion since his tactical adeptness in these situations is proof his brain continues to work perfectly.” (PTI)
