After India beat Sri Lanka to win the third T20I at the Wankhede Stadium, Dhoni was captured in a video sharing some of his experience with Upul Tharanga and the Sri Lankan opener's young team-mates Akila Dananjaya and Sadeera Samarawickrama. 


While Sanjay Manjrekar was interviewing the SL captain Thisara Perera at the presentation ceremony, the aforementioned players from the island nation were all ears listening to Dhoni. 



Dhoni, who batted up the order in the T20I series against Sri Lanka, is seemingly looking forward to feature in the 2019 World Cup in England, for which he has the vote of confidence of chief coach Ravi Shastri as well as the chairman of the selection committee, MSK Prasad.
