- Watching MS Dhoni play without captaincy burden:
Probably the most exciting aspect about this series lies in watching MS Dhoni play with complete freedom. Dhoni last played without being the skipper way back in 2007 against England at Lord’s, and after nearly a decade, he returns to that fold.
Dhoni the batsman has always been a gem for India as he has demolished bowling attacks single handedly. The fact that his strike rate as non captain is 10 more than that of as captain, will just enhance the excitement of watching him play.
He can now bat at his favored position as the management is more than happy to support him. Once he is free of all worries, Dhoni the beast could well take over to give England absolute nightmares.
