Mahendra Singh Dhoni is One of the Best: Muttiah Muralitharan

Mahendra Singh Dhoni is One of the Best: Muttiah Muralitharan

Sri Lankan spin wizard Muttiah Muralitharan said on Monday that Mahendra Singh Dhoni is one of the best cricket captains and he should not be criticised for India's disastrous performance in Twenty20 World Cup.

Dhoni remains one of the best skippers in international cricket and it is unfair to criticise him on the basis of just one bad tournament, added Muralitharan.

World's highest Test wicket-taker both in Tests and ODIs, who plays under Dhoni in the Indian Premier League champion side Chennai Super Kings, said he was amused to see the outrage that greeted India's early exit from the showpiece event in the West Indies.

"He is one of the best captains. He won the IPL for Chennai Super Kings. A week later India were knocked out of the World Cup and in India when you win you are the best but when you lose you become the worst," Muralitharan quipped.

"But you cannot become the worst in just a week," he said.
