In the conference, he talked about a number of things, including his preparations for the tournament. Moreover, he explained how MS Dhoni helped him to shape his leadership skills in the game, regardless of the format and situation.
Talking about Captain Cool, he said, "We have always seen how Mahendra Singh Dhoni remains calm & one of the things I have learnt from him is that anger may last for five minutes but decisions taken in anger can often be wrong.
