Each day, Laxman talks about one teammate, and this time it was former India captain, MS Dhoni. “Blessed with the rare equanimity of viewing cricket as a sport and not a matter of life and death, @msdhoni’s calling card was composure, especially under pressure. Laxman played with Dhoni during the wicketkeeper-batsman’s initial years in the squad and then went on to play under his captaincy. He became the first and only captain to win the ICC WT20 (2007), ICC World Cup (2011), and ICC Champions Trophy (2013). Dhoni last played for India in the 2019 ICC World Cup semi-final game against New Zealand.
