Indian coach Gary Kirsten says Anil Kumble commands respect, Dhoni reminds him of Cronje
Chennai Super Kings and Indian ODI/Twenty20 skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been likened to late South African skipper Hansie Cronje by Cronje’s former colleague and Indian team coach Gary Kirsten.
Gary Kirsten said while Test skipper Anil Kumble had earned the respect of team mates, ODI and Twenty20 skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni was able to get the most out of his side, akin to Hansie Cronje.
Gary Kirsten also said Sachin Tendulkar was enjoying his game more than ever adding the master blaster could be aiming to score 50 hundreds.
Sachin Tendulkar at present has scored 39 centuries.
Gary Kirsten also said Sachin Tendulkar, who would captain the Mumbai Indians in IPL, was willing to learn even at this stage of his career.
