Mahendra Singh Dhoni is one of the coolest personalities the game of cricket has ever seen. Hence, he is even known as ‘Captain Cool’. Even, ‘Captain Cool’ has a superstitious side attached to him. Former India left-arm orthodox spinner Pragyan reveals the superstitions that MS Dhoni follows. He was quick to reveal some secrets that the fans may not really have known about. Such is the game of cricket.
Ojha revealed that Dhoni does not wish any of his players ‘Good Luck’ right before the start of the match. He also went on to reveal the reason behind this. Ojha stated that whenever Dhoni wished his players ‘Good Luck’ the result turned out to be very different. This is the reason why MS Dhoni stopped the practice of wishing good luck to his players.
“MSD will never wish his team members ‘all the best’ or ‘good luck’ before a game. Because he feels, if he wishes somebody quite a few players he has wished during a game, it ended up in a very different way. That’s maybe why he has stopped it,” said Ojha in a chat with Sports Today.
Ojha had a conversation with MS Dhoni regarding his superstitions
Ojha stated that when he had a conversation with MS Dhoni regarding people and their sentiments, then Dhoni revealed this to him. He also said that no players even from the opposition visit him before the match and want to take good luck wishes from him ahead of the start of the match.

That is if everything works out as per the plan coming from the management and MS Dhoni himself. Let’s wait and watch. IPL 2021 will be really exciting for sure!!
