New Delhi: MS Dhoni might be gearing up to play for Rising Pune Supergiant in season 10 of Indian Premier League but the former India captain had a memorable day in the office of Gulf Oil India after he sat on the seat of the company's CEO for a day.

Seeing the man who usually dons cricket jersey while hitting bowliers out of the park, wearing a suit and sitting on the chair of a CEO, even the employees of the company were surprised.

Dhoni's close friend and commercial interests manager, Arun Pandey, revealed that the company and Mahi have been planning this day for a long time and finally were able to execute it.

“As a CEO of the company for the day, Mahi has attended all the special meetings of the company. He will also take quite a few decisions, just like a real CEO,” Pandey was quoted saying by Sportstar.

“Mahi’s association with the company goes back a long way, and for a long time, he also wanted to understand how a corporate CEO works. He wanted to try this out too.” Pandey further added.

Supergiant play their first match of the 2017 IPL at home against Mumbai Indians on April 6, and for the first time, Dhoni will be seen batting under the leadership of Aussie captain Steve Smith in IPL.
