He said, “I was wanting to play under the great MS Dhoni as captain. I had a nice little conversation with him. I said, ‘you’re sure you don’t want to captain one more season so I can play under you as captain?'”
“Then he said no, I am always going to be around anyway.”
“A couple of days ago I had lunch and sat in between MS and Jaddu. It was really cool just to get to know them better. There are just normal men, down-to-earth. There’s no aura about them, easy to get along and easy to talk to”, Conway further added.
