“No Target Is Too Large” For Him: Brad Hogg praises MS Dhoni
“MS Dhoni desires that specific moment. He wants it because he has faith in himself. There is no such thing as an impossible target. Whether it’s 15 runs per over or 30 runs per over, he believes he can get his team over the finish line. Also, he is aware that the bowler believes he is good at this role at the back end and that he can win in any situation “, he explained.
“His scoring rate in the 18th and 19th over is not particularly high. He’s just moving the ball around to ensure he has control of the run rate. In the final over, it’s just him and the bowler, and he tries to attack the bowler in the first couple of balls. When he does this, his reputation takes precedence over the bowler’s mind “, he went on to say.
