Indian wicketkeeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has had his share of success with the ball, whenever he decided to bowl in the past. The 36-year old was seen primarily as a medium pacer in international cricket as he bowled only pace bowling so far in international cricket.
However, ahead of the third ODI at Indore, MS Dhoni was seen turning his hand once again to bowl few deliveries. But much to the surprise to many, the Jharkhand dynamite was caught on a camera bowling slow right arm off spin.
India already have an abundant of spin resources in the series against Australia, as the team have the likes of Ravindra Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav. However, if Virat Kohli decides to have some off-spin on a spin-friendly wicket, MS Dhoni might be a viable option as well after watching the video.
