Shami reveals his choice for the greatest India captain
When it came to determining the greatest India captain, Shami initially highlighted the difficulty of comparisons but eventually settled on the iconic MS Dhoni. Drawing attention to Dhoni’s unparalleled success, Shami emphasized that the measure of greatness ultimately boils down to achievements.
“It’s different for everyone. Everything comes down to comparison. Obviously you will go with the person who is most successful. So, I’ll go with Mahendra Singh Dhoni because whatever he has achieved, no one has been able to eclipse that,” the star India pacer added.
Notably, Dhoni is the only captain to secure victories in all three major ICC tourname▨nts, including the T20 World Cup, ODI World Cup, and ICC Champions Trophy, which stands as a testament to his leadership ﷺprowess.
