In Ganguly\u2019s telling, the approach was simple: identify match-winning ability early, fast-track it, and don\u2019t let slow \u201cdevelopment\u201d dull a player\u2019s edge.<\/p>\n<h2>Key takeaways<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Ganguly said Dhoni was flagged as a potential India player well before his debut, after he caught attention in domestic viewing.<\/li>\n<li>Dhoni\u2019s ODI journey began with uncertainty: he debuted against Bangladesh in Chattogram in December 2004 and was run out for a duck off his first ball.<\/li>\n<li>Ganguly made a major captaincy call by sending Dhoni to No. 3 versus Pakistan in Visakhapatnam, where he struck 148 off 123 balls.<\/li>\n<li>Former selector and wicketkeeper Saba Karim played a role in the recommendation, pointing to Dhoni\u2019s six-hitting.<\/li>\n<li>Ganguly explained that once Dhoni was in the squad, he intentionally delayed the final decision for a few days to assess him personally.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>From a rocky debut to a decisive promotion<\/h2>\n<p>Ganguly noted that Dhoni\u2019s international start did not arrive with guarantees. Dhoni received his ODI debut under Ganguly against Bangladesh in Chattogram in December 2004, but the outing lasted only a single delivery before he was run out for a duck. While such a start can shake confidence, Ganguly said Dhoni\u2019s story followed a different path.<\/p>\n<p>Months later, Ganguly made one of the defining calls of his captaincy. In a match against Pakistan at Visakhapatnam, he moved Dhoni to the No. 3 batting position. The promotion immediately paid off: Dhoni produced a 148-run knock from 123 balls, an innings Ganguly described as a turning point in India\u2019s cricketing direction.<\/p>\n<h2>How Ganguly spotted Dhoni\u2014and why he moved him quickly<\/h2>\n<p>Speaking on Raj Shamani\u2019s podcast, Ganguly explained that Dhoni had already drawn interest before his India debut. \u201cWe watch full matches,\u201d Ganguly said, adding that during Dhoni\u2019s earlier playing days he had even travelled to Jamshedpur to watch him. In Ganguly\u2019s account, Dhoni was not aware of the attention being paid to him at that stage.<\/p>\n<p>He also revealed that Saba Karim\u2014previously a selector and a wicketkeeper\u2014helped bring Dhoni\u2019s name into focus. Ganguly said Karim told him something to the effect of, \u201cHe hits a lot of sixes,\u201d which led to Dhoni being picked straight into the India A setup. Ganguly further claimed that Dhoni played his first match at Wankhede Stadium in his team, scored a hundred, and struck sixes \u201cto the roof,\u201d leaving little room for hesitation.<\/p>\n<p>That display, in Ganguly\u2019s view, removed doubt over whether Dhoni should be given a fast route. \u201cWe had to take him,\u201d Ganguly said. His reasoning was that talent of that kind cannot be left behind in a slow, cautious process. \u201cWhoever is good has to be fast-tracked. You cannot leave him,\u201d he added, insisting that trying to \u201ccook\u201d a player gradually from the side can ruin the impact he is capable of making.<\/p>\n<p>Ganguly\u2019s broader selection philosophy was also rooted in a cricketing logic about pressure and level. He pointed to a clear rule he believed in: \u201cIf you play with people above your level, your game will rise. If you play below, your game will go down.\u201d In a period when India was moving through change\u2014established stars holding key batting positions and competition for openings remaining intense\u2014Ganguly said he repeatedly backed aggressive young talent for prominent roles, naming players such as Yuvraj Singh, Harbhajan Singh, Virender Sehwag, and Dhoni.<\/p>\n<p>He added an important detail about the decision-making process once Dhoni had been selected. Ganguly said he delayed the final call because he wanted to see Dhoni himself first, holding up the decision for a few days before confirming it.<\/p>\n<h2>The Visakhapatnam ODI that turned potential into certainty<\/h2>\n<p>Ganguly said the same philosophy was visible in the Pakistan ODI at Visakhapatnam. Instead of keeping Dhoni in a lower-order \u201cholding\u201d role, he placed him in a high-pressure batting slot against a major rival. Ganguly said Dhoni then delivered with force\u201415 fours and four sixes\u2014transforming what could have been an opportunity into certainty in a single innings.<\/p>\n<p>Dhoni later went on to become India\u2019s World Cup-winning captain, build a record as a multiple ICC trophy winner, and emerge as one of the most influential figures in white-ball cricket. Yet Ganguly\u2019s recollection makes the foundation clear: Dhoni\u2019s rise did not start with trophies or captaincy. It began with full-match observation, a trip to Jamshedpur, a recommendation from Saba Karim, and a captain\u2019s willingness to trust explosive talent before the broader system fully caught up.<\/p>\n<p>And, as fans will remember, there\u2019s also that familiar moment from \u201cMS Dhoni, the Untold Story,\u201d where the sentiment is captured as: \u201cDhoni ko try karte hain.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sourav Ganguly has described the early thinking that helped MS Dhoni move rapidly through India\u2019s pathway, long before the
