IPL 2021: Playing Under MS Dhoni on Every Player's Wish List, Says CSK All-Rounder Moeen Ali
Dhoni has led CSK to IPL title thrice (2010, 2011, and 2018). The franchise had finished at the seventh spot last season and it was the first time, that the side failed to qualify for the playoffs.
Mumbai, March 31: Chennai Super Kings newest recruit Moeen Ali says that the franchise has a calm tone to it and he also said that every player in the world wants to play under the leadership of MS Dhoni. Moeen Ali was bought by CSK for INR 7 crore in the players' auction held in February 2021.
"I think what differentiates CSK from other teams is actually how they structure everything... from the squad they have to the way they do things. They look a very calm franchise that doesn't panic," the official website of CSK quoted Moeen as saying.
"I've spoken to players who have played under MS and they tell me how he improves their game. I believe a great captain does that. I think it's something on every player's wish list to play under MS. I think it's the confidence and the clarity he gives people. It's exciting," he added.

"At CSK I feel the reality is there for us to win the competition. I'm excited about playing with the players we have here," he added.
