He was calmer in 2007 than in 2013: Irfan Pathan on how MS Dhoni's captaincy changed over the years

India TV News  

Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan played much of his career under the captaincy of MS Dhoni and hence on Saturday was able to elaborate of how the veteran cricketer changed as a skipper between India's maiden World T20 victory in 2007 and India's 2013 Champions Trophy win in England. The one thing which really really changed was when young MS Dhoni became a captain in 2007, he used to run from wicketkeeping to bowling end in excitement and try to control the bowler as well but by the time 2013 came he was letting the bowler control themselves rather he controlling them. Dhoni last captained India in the 2018 Asia Cup game against Afghanistan although he had stepped down from the role back in early 2017 allowing Virat Kohli to take over the spot across formats. Under him, India won 2007 World T20, 2011 World Cup and 2013 Champions Trophy.
