We have seen many big captains in India, however, Dhoni has a way different leadership style and everyone is inspired by him. He is the only captain in the history of world cricket, who has all three ICC trophies – Champions Trophy, T20 World Cup, and ICC World Cup. The most successful captain of the IPL and he is the person who changes the game behind the stumps and i am here to tell you how MS DHONI is the most successful captain of the Indian Cricket Team.
Today I will tell you five leadership lessons from MS Dhoni that made him a successful Captain of the Indian Cricket Team.
DHONI always Lead His Team From The Front.
When he tells the team to fight till the last ball, he himself stands there till the end and finishes the match And he is one of the best finishers in the world. When DHONI is on the pitch, the probability of the game ending and winning is more than 99%. When Dhoni tells his team to stay “fit”, he is also one of the fittest. When Dhoni tells the team to practice regularly, he is the most regular in practice. Dhoni has successfully chased runs 50 times and has not been out. In the 2011 World Cup Final, Sehwag got out on zero, and Sachin did not make good runs even after that, our Gambhir was standing on one side, however, on the other side, wickets are going continuously At that time, Dhoni said to Yuvraj Singh – “You sit, I am going” and Dhoni stood on that side, made 91 runs and lastly, win the match after hitting six. This is called “Leading from the front“.
How DHONI Manage His Stress?
Dhoni once said that he has learned a lesson from his life. He had an exam and before the exam, he was getting tense. And his father said if you have studied for the whole year, then one day if you don’t study then what difference does it make? And even if you have not studied for the whole year, then also what difference does it make? Dhoni always says that whatever is over is over. What can I do next, I have to pay attention to it. Suppose taking tension will benefit me or my team. I will definitely do it but it doesn’t happen, that’s why I don’t take tension, And that’s why he is known as CAPTAIN COOL.
How DHONI Handle The Failure?
At the time when Dhoni is a Captain, so either the (CSK) Chennai Super King meeting or the Indian Cricket Team meeting After the match, there is only two minutes meeting and Dhoni say, you can’t win every match, you played well and rest will talk tomorrow. Let’s go boys! Dhoni never blames his team for a bad match.
DHONI Always Supports His Team Member.
Dhoni never allows failure to be dominant on himself, nor on any other player. He never shares blame though do share the credit. If someone wins the match and gets the trophy, Dhoni will take the trophy once at the time of the interview, after that whoever is the newest member of the team, Dhoni gives the trophy to him and the whole team then plays with the trophy, gets photographed, but Dhoni silently goes to the background. Dhoni did not like the limelight.
How does DHONI Focus On Work And Managing Success?
At the time when he was going for the Championship Trophy, everyone was in tension at that time, there were putting allegations of match-fixing and the media, and there was the same news going on – Fixing and Fixing. The morale of team members was also low. Dhoni said you do not have something wrong and I do not have something wrong. Let the world say that we must focus on our work and in a few days, they won the Championship Trophy, and all news busted and they replied with their success and if we focus, Dhoni has gained such great respect because he lived in simplicity. He travels by train, Self farming on his farm, and hence, You and I and every other person respect him.
