“Any Coach Would Love MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli In His Side”: Kings XI Punjab Coach Mike Hesson

Written by Vipin Darwade

Kings XI Punjab’s (KXIP) coach Mike Hesson is mightily impressed with the former India skipper MS Dhoni and his successor Virat Kohli  and said that any coach would love to have the star duo in their side. The former head coach of New Zealand also explained what makes Dhoni and Kohli even more special in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

“Any coach would want to have either both or any one of them in the side. Their ability to adapt to a game situation is amazing. Virat is at the top of his game and he keeps pushing himself. He adjusts to formats brilliantly and he is world-class. Virat will be looking to do a job for RCB,” Hesson told IANS.

“MS Dhoni was just at his best with the bat in the last year’s IPL. Showed a lot of intent,” the 44-year-old added.

Dhoni has been the skipper of CSK from the inaugural season of the lucrative tournament. Kohli took over as the captain of RCB from 2012.
