MS Dhoni has been in the news since long because of his absence from the game. Although he is known as one who does not show a lot of emotion on the field, his wife Sakshi said that Dhoni is always emotional about cricket as it is his love.

Sakshi said during an Instagram Live chat on CSK's official handle: "Mahi is always emotional about cricket. It's his love." Her comments came on Dhoni got emotional after leading Chennai Super Kings to their third Indian Premier League title in 2018. That year, Rajasthan Royals (RR) and CSK had returned to the IPL after a two-year ban. She also revealed how his passion for games help him relax.

She added, "Video games are a stress buster for him. He has a thinking brain which doesn't rest. So video games help him and he is now too much into Call Of Duty and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)."

Dhoni had last appeared in the 2019 World Cup semi-final where India lost to New Zealand and since then he didn’t feature in any game. However, she also joked that only she can fight with ice-cool Dhoni and no one else.

"Mahi has always kept his door open. It has been like that since 2010 (when we got married). People come...we chat sometimes till 3-4 in the morning. When they come to talk to Mahi about cricket, I go away," she shared.

Sakshi revealed their plans to go to the hills post lockdown on a road trip if cricket does not resume during that time.

"If there is cricket there will be cricket. But Mahi and I have planned to hit the hills. We are planning to go to Uttarakhand..stay in small villages. we will do road trips..no flights," Sakshi said.

However, Sakshi also said that CSK has always been a family to them where they consider the sport as a sport and there are no hard feelings as well.
