"Probably world cricket has missed one thing... that is MS (Dhoni) captained India and did not bat at No. 3. Had MS batted at No. 3, probably world cricket would have seen a completely different player," Gautam Gambhir told Star Sports 'Cricket Connected'
"Probably he would have got many more runs, broken many records. Forget about records, they are meant to be broken. He would have been the most exciting cricketer in the world had he not captained India and had he batted at No. 3.
"MS Dhoni batting at No. 3 on flat wickets with the quality of bowling attack now in world cricket... look at Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and West Indies in the current situation, with the quality there is no international cricket, MS Dhoni would have broken most of the records."
MS Dhoni has been remaining out of action in International cricket since India's unexpected exit from the 2019 World Cup last year. Now, with IPL 2020 remaining suspended, uncertainty over Dhoni's future is being widely-debated in the cricket fraternity.
