Indian wicket-keeper MS Dhoni has always guided India's young spinners, Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal. Even the spinning duo has admitted of being helped by the veteran cricketer's inputs from behind the wickets.

The magic of Dhoni from behind the stumps was proved once again when he helped Kuldeep pick up his 4th and New Zealand's last wicket in the first ODI. 

Trent Boult was looking restless against the spinners. He was doing too many movements, while his batting partner Tim Southee was going for runs from the other end.

Dhoni speculated Boult's next move after reading his batting. He said Boult won't try anything and Kuldeep can go for a Chinaman. 

It was the 37th over of the match when Dhoni suggested, "Yeh aank band karke rokega. Dusra waala daal sakta hai isko." 

After this ball, Kuldeep dismissed Boult as directed by India's wicket-keeper. He bagged four wickets in the game and became India's pick of the bowlers. New Zealand was bowled out on just 157 runs.
