Former India cricketer Ashish Nehra has shared the dressing room with MS Dhoni for many years. He also made his comeback to the Indian side under Dhoni. 

The pacer went on to play for India in the T20 World Cup 2016 and also performed well like his stint with Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL in the leadership of Dhoni.

In a chat with Aakash Chopra on his show 'Aakashvani', Nehra talked about Dhoni and his welcoming nature. 

“People think Dhoni is an introvert and doesn’t talk much to players. That is not the case. His room would remain open in the night after matches. Anyone could walk in, order food, and discuss cricket.

“Be it in CSK or in the Indian team, Dhoni would pass on the message on what he thinks a player needs to do during a conversation and that would be enough for the players to get the drift,” Nehra clarified.

The 41-year-old was part of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) squad for two seasons, 2014 and 2015. 

He couldn't be a part of the team India after recovering from injury in 2011 but was included in the T20 series against Australia in 2016.
