The experienced MS Dhoni has been a guiding force from behind the stumps for his bowlers. He was once again seen helping Hardik Pandya to do well in the first T20I against South Africa.

India defeated the Proteas in opening T20I by 28 runs and it was possible because of a good bowling performance by visitors. They had put up a par score on a batting friendly pitch. But the bowlers did well to restrict South Africa way below the target. 

Dhoni has been many times praised for his guidance to both Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav, but this time he shared his experience with Hardik Pandya. 

South Africa needed their reliable batsman David Miller to fire in at a crucial stage. But it didn't happen as Pandya dismissed him in no time. 

Pandya was trying hard to get under Miller's skin. He bowled a short delivery first up and it sailed way over the head of the southpaw. Dhoni, who caught the ball with ease, looked disappointed with the bouncer. He gestured Pandya to focus and bowl one on the good length.

The next ball resulted in a wicket. Here is the video:
