I cannot express all the things (about MS Dhoni's tips). I have upgraded my game. I got to know how to finish the game, how to be in the situation, how to tackle the bowlers, that all things are more important and many things are there but cannot express all the things But, I definitely got some big tips.
Shivam Dube added
He told me to play till the end and try to finish the game. You can win many matches from your batting, so keep believing in yourself.
