A bond unspoken: It was MS Dhoni’s sister who helped him become a cricketer

Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s journey from Ranchi to becoming a cricket icon was significantly supported by his elder sister Jayanti Gupta and mother Devaki Devi. Jayanti played a pivotal role in persuading their father to let Dhoni pursue cricket. Dhoni led India to a World Cup victory in 2011 and continues to play in the IPL for Chennai Super Kings.
