just a game but no one managed to detach themselves from it better
than Dhoni.

Transcending the sport.

We’ve heard that said so often about so many athletes that it is now a cliche. Yet, it
is an accurate description of Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

But like all things Dhoni, he did it in his own way. Not by merely taking the path
less beaten. Rather, by carving a path where none existed before.

From making his way to the Indian team from Jharkhand… to becoming the Indian
skipper… to walking away from the sport… he took all those decisions based on a
logic that was uniquely his. Through it all, Dhoni managed to detach himself
masterfully from the circus that follows the Indian cricket team.
