"I Was Pinching Myself": Dhruv Jurel Recalls His First Interaction With MS Dhoni

Indian wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel opened-up his first interaction with former India skipper ahead of the fourth Test of the five-match series against England at Ranchi. Currently, the hosts lead the five-match series 2-1 with still two matches to go in the series. The fourth Test will commence on February 23 at JSCA International Stadium Complex followed by the fifth and final Test of the series to be played at Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamshala. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) took to their social media handle, X and shared a video in which Jurel is talking about Dhoni.

"I was just watching him and I stood up and started thinking is this MS Dhoni standing in front of me. My first interaction with him was in IPL 2021 which was my first season. At that time, I was pinching myself to see whether it is a dream or not. My dream is to meet Mahi bhai especially after the match after an international game. Whenever I have talked to him, I have always learnt something new from him so I will hope that I get a chance to meet him during the fourth Test at Ranchi," Jurel said in a video posted by BCCI.
