Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Hardik Pandya are different cricketers of different genres. One is a highly experienced and the other trying to make a name for himself. Comparisons between the two is unfair, but that seems to be what former cricketers are indulging in. Recently, former Indian cricketer, Karsan Ghavri said that he feels MS Dhoni is 100o times better than Hardik Pandya. Now that is not called for, Mr. Ghavri! Ghavri, with all the talk around that Dhoni has lost his finishing skills, Ghavri still feels MS Dhoni is the best finisher in modern times.
“There is no competition when it comes to Dhoni’s finishing ability. He is 1,000 times better finisher than Pandya. Even today, Dhoni can change the game in a matter of four or five overs only.” said the former cricketer.
“Please do not compare Dhoni with Hardik Pandya. It is true Pandya has a bright future ahead of him, But he is just climbing the ladder of India cricket, and Dhoni has proved it for so many years,” Ghavri concluded.
Hardik Pandya is still new to international cricket, but in this limited period, he has already shown signs of being a great someday. Hardik has so far played only 48 international games, whereas MS Dhoni has won every major ICC tournament and is closing in on completing 16,000 international runs.

Meanwhile, India won the T20I opener against Australia at Ranchi by 9 wickets. Virat Kohli-led team India had earlier won the ODI series 4-1. With India on a dream run, they would like to extend it for as long as possible.
