On the occasion of the former chief of Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) N Srinivasan book ‘Defying The Paradigm,’ launch MS Dhoni stole the show with his speech. Former captain cool revealed how his career with Chennai Super Kings became a perfect mix for him.

On the book launch, MS Dhoni said that he never thought he would be selected for the Chennai Super Kings in the IPL - which was owned by Srinivasan’s India Cements during the very first auction.


“I have written and deleted this speech time and again and finally decided to go with the flow. I think the first interaction with sir was during a Test match and he had just become the treasurer. He walked in with Kashi sir after the end of the day’s play or during a break and asked when we get payment. One player said if we are lucky after 4 months. He just asked Kashi sir as to why and that is where it ended. He loves to play golf just as much as he loves cricket,” said Dhoni on the occasion of the book launch as quoted by Hindustan Times.

“I got to learn a lot out of him as I have been a part of CSK for the longest times. I never knew I would be selected for CSK. It became a very perfect mix like rum and coke. Either you love him or hate him, but you cannot ignore him. Fortunate to have been able to spend a lot of time with him,” he added.
