New Delhi: Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s rise from a small town to India’s most successful captain is a success story for generations to watch, emulate and inspire from. In his over one and half decade cricketing career, Dhoni kept sports lovers entertained and thrilled with his ‘helicopter shots’ and unique finishing style.
But, off the field also, the cricketer is nothing less than gem of a person. His humility, being connected to the roots reflect in his behavior.
While flying recently, Dhoni set an example when he left his business class seat for an economy class passenger as the latter’s ‘legs were too long to fit in’.
Dhoni offered his business class seat to the person and himself moved to economy class.
A Twitter user by the name of George uploaded a video of the flight claiming the same. The man claiming so looked like a CSK staffer himself. The video was liked by Chennai SuperKings also.
“When a man who’s seen it all, done it all in Cricket tells you, ‘Your legs are too long, sit in my seat (Business Class), I’ll sit in Economy.’ The skipper never fails to amaze me. @msdhoni”, the tweet read.
Here’s the video:

In the video, it can be seen that Dhoni is having a chat with Suresh Raina and some of his other CSK mates while sitting in the economy class.
The CSK skipper has already won three league titles with the franchise over the past 12 years and would be looking to add a fourth this time around.
Dhoni retired from international cricket on Aug 15
The most successful skipper hung up his boots on August 15 at 19:29 PM, leaving everybody perplexed about the timing of his retirement.
The cricketer bid adieu to the international cricket with a 4 minute song…. “Main Do pal do….”
