Captain Cool : The M.s.dhoni Story

hendra Singh Dhoni is as calm and unruffled a sportsman on the field as he is self-effacing off it. But 'brute strength', 'murderous form' and 'a man possessed' were some of the phrases that came to mind when, on 5 April 2005 in Vishakapatnam, he exploded onto international consciousness by becoming the first regular Indian keeper to score a one-day century.How that legend came to be - and grew from game to game - is told here by noted sportswriter Gulu Ezekiel in his crackling but measured prose. Captain Cool is the story of M.S.Dhoni, Indian cricket's poster boy; it is also the heartwarming account of the life of a young man who won India the World Twenty20 title but can still tell his throngs of admirers, 'I am the same boy from Ranchi.'
