Dhoni seeks inspiration from Manchester United


Dhoni seeks inspiration from Manchester United
London: India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is clearly searching for some inspiration after his team's 0-4 mauling at the hands of England in the recent Test series. That's the reason the Manchester United fan landed up at Old Trafford to watch Sunday's English Premier League match between the Red Devils and Arsenal, along with his business partner Arun Pandey and teammate Suresh Raina.
And inspiration would have flown as fluently as the goals from the Red Devils - eight of them to be precise, as the reigning EPL champions humiliated Arsene Wenger's men 8-2.
United's impressive win could have been just the tonic to lift Dhoni and Co's drooping spirits following their Test defeat wherein they also surrendered the World No. 1 crown to the English. Reams of newsprint have been spent on criticising the Indian team, and Dhoni's visit to the football match would have been to overcome just that gloom.
The Indian captain, it is learnt, enjoys watching inspirational videos too.
"During the Test matches, he watched video of army men... of how they survive in tough conditions. And thereafter he would make it a point to even share his experience with us," a team member told Mid DAY.
Let's hope the reel life action inspires some positive real life results for Team India in the upcoming one-day series against England.
