'Frustration is not constructive', says MS Dhoni

Speaking at an event, MS Dhoni said "I also feel frustrated, disappointed and angry. I also feel the irritation if things do not go our way. But its all about how do you channelize that. It is about whether the frustration was leading to something wrong for the team. I feel equally emotional I feel angry at times I feel disappointed but what is important is none of these are constructive. What needs to be done at the moment is more important than any of these emotions. I am just like everyone else but I just control my emotions slightly better than some of the other individuals. But we Indians are emotional and we thrive on emotions, but I always felt my emotions should be in my control and it will help me think about the process than the result as results put you under pressure."
