Chris Gayle recently termed MS as the 'Most Selfless Player' in the T20I format. Gayle was a part of an interview on Jio Cinema along with Scott Styris, Anil Kumble, and Robin Uthappa. During the rapid-fire round of the interview, Gayle and the other experts had chosen MS Dhoni as the 'most selfless player' in the T20 league history. The decision was unanimous and there was no disagreement regarding the same.

Gayle will be among the cricket experts this season so on the other hand MS Dhoni will be once again seen leading Chennai Super Kings.
