  • Mahendra Singh Dhoni: a Leadership Study of an Enigma
    © 2018 JETIR December 2018, Volume 5, Issue 12 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Mahendra Singh Dhoni: A Leadership Study of an Enigma Hardeep Singh Assistant Professor, Centre of Professional Enhancement, Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, Punjab (India) Abstract The article is about the talismanic former wicketkeeper and skipper of Team India. It is a study depicting arrival of a young man full of immense potential, his technique of stewardship leading into staggering success with some share of controversies along the stunning journey. Dhoni was handed over the captaincy of the team in 2007 and he took the cricketing world by storm with his unique style of leading the team. The case elucidates the journey of a small town boy who emerged as a stellar performer for Indian team. Under his leadership, Indian team went on the scale tall mountains courtesy his sheer grit and determination. The entire team had great belief in him and he as a skipper was liked and adored in the cricketing circles. His attributes of being mentally tough and leading from the front inspired players to put their best foot forward in every match in tricolors. Without an iota of doubt, Team India blossomed under his leadership and continues to do so as he passed the baton to young sensation and virtually the king of batting Virat Kohli. Keywords: Captain, Leadership, Great, Enigmatic, Performer Introduction Leadership, the quality of changing the attitude and behavior of your co- workers and instills in them the trait of zeal and confidence. This can be said for the leaders who are leading in different fields.

Chasing 178 to win, Bang- ladesh were struggling at 102 for six but Akbar, who finished 43 not out, dragged them towards the line. A brief flurry of rain saw the players leave the field with Bangladesh on 163 for seven. When they returned the tar- get had been adjusted under DLS to 170 from 46 overs. Bangladesh needed seven from 30 balls and Akbar and Rakibul Hasan duly knocked off the runs to claim Bangladesh’s first World Cup at any level. “It’s an unbelievable expe- rience,” said Rakibul who hit the winning run. “We came here with plans and it worked out really well. Whichever team executes their plans better on the day wins, and that happened for us today.” The day started well for Bangladesh when Akbar called correctly at the toss and put India in to bat.
