Former Indian skipper MS Dhoni is a cricketer known for witty replies. One of the most loved sportspersons in India, Captain Cool is still a fan favourite despite his retirement from the international arena. In a recent video uploaded, Dhoni was talking about his favourite sporting idol after which a little fangirl asked him about his favourite subject in school.
A little stumped by the question, Dhoni chuckled and replied, “Does sport qualify as a subject?”, to which the audience burst into laughter.

The video was shared on the official Twitter handle of MSD's IPL team Chennai Super Kings. "Even Thala's favourite period is PTI!" CSK wrote along with the post. Earlier in the video, Dhoni was seen opening up on his favourite idol, to which his reply was Sachin Tendulkar.
"As a cricketing role model, it is always Sachin Tendulkar," said Dhoni to a round of applause from the audience. "I was exactly like you guys. Watched Sachin Tendulkar play and always thought I want to play like him. Later on, I realised I cannot play but inside in my heart just wanted to play like him. So he was a cricketing idol growing up."
