Summary of the Book

Generations will remember Dhoni for hitting that spectacular winning six for India in the finals of the 50-over World Cup in 2011 against Sri Lanka. Even more miraculous is the hope that he has given to many aspiring cricketers across India as a true legacy. Born in the lap of poverty and having struggled through numerous adversities, Dhoni’s growth from being just another small-town boy to captain of Team India is now a case study in business schools. With matchless grit and self-belief, Dhoni led India to ICC World Twenty20, ICC 50-over Cricket World Cup, and ICC Champions Trophy triumphs, as well as the number one ranking in test matches. Although he has had his fair share of disappointments, it has only served as another motivation to work harder and emerge victoriously. This title studies Dhoni’s innate leadership abilities by speaking to celebrities from different walks of life, including Vineet Nayar, Harsh Goenka, and Dhanraj Pillay. Replete with examples of Dhoni’s strong individuality and influencing leadership, and marking one decade of his entry into the Indian cricket team, MSD: The Man, The Leader will reinforce a belief in the readers.
