ASIA CUP 2018 | HOW 'CAPTAIN' MAHENDRA SINGH DHONI STRATEGIZED THE WICKET OF SHAKIB AL HASAN

MS Dhoni might have given up captaincy, but he never shies away from giving tips to his bowlers and batting partners. He never deters from giving tips to the captain, be it Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma or any other player.
In a similar incident, a tip by Dhoni produced a masterstroke to help Ravindra Jadeja dismiss Shakib Al Hasan in the clash between India and Bangladesh in the Asia Cup. Jadeja, who was making his comeback in the team after more than a year, looked a little rusty.
In came Dhoni's masterstroke, advising captain Rohit Sharma to move Shikhar Dhawan from slip to square leg position.

And it turns out, the advice cost Bangladesh a crucial wicket. Shakib Al Hasan got carried away and handed a catch to Dhawan, who was positioned there by Dhoni.
