In a morale-boosting statement, MS Dhoni has slotted India into the elite bracket of T20 World Cup 2026 favorites. The World Cup-winning captain lauds the team’s equilibrium of talent and temperament.
Key to success, per Dhoni, is excelling in tense tournaments. ‘Players are geared up anytime, any role,’ he observed, a trait that bestows superiority.
‘Among the most dangerous teams,’ Dhoni labeled them. ‘Loaded with format-specific experience, battle-tested in pressure cookers, perfectly cast in roles.’
Enter dew, the villain. ‘Dew is my nightmare—it flips games,’ Dhoni revealed. ‘Tosses gain outsized importance. Neutral setups? We’d beat top teams handily.’
Unpredictability defines T20. Dhoni highlighted risks: ‘Poor shows from ours, brilliance from theirs—group or knockouts. Need no injuries, role adherence, and a dash of fortune.’
Dhoni’s blueprint inspires, urging India to harness strengths while countering variables for global triumph.
