MS Dhoni swaps his business class seat with economy class passenger

Guwahati: Former Indian skipper-captain, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, has again shown his humble side while on his way to Dubai for the Indian Premier League (IPL) camp with Chennai Super Kings (CSK).

Dhoni and many of his CSK teammates and staff members boarded the flight to UAE. They left Chennai for their preparations for the 13th edition of the IPL on Friday.

During the flight, Dhoni is said to have swapped his business class seat with an economy class passenger. Dhoni felt the CSK director George John's 'legs were too long' to fit in economy class seats.

The CSK director uploaded a video of the flight, "When a man who's seen it all, done it all in Cricket tells you, "Your legs are too long, sit in my seat (Business Class), I'll sit in Economy." The skipper never fails to amaze me. @msdhoni,". This tweet went viral and got likes even from the official Twitter account of the Chennai Super Kings.

Dhoni can be seen having a chat with Suresh Raina and some of his other CSK pals while sitting in the economy class during the video.

Many cricketers have narrated the stories of Dhoni's humility, both on and off the pitch and the 39-year-old cricketer remains as one of the most loved sportsmen in the country.

From handling high-pressure situations on the field or just carrying on his duties as a father or a husband, Dhoni is synonymous with simplicity and that is what makes him a true legend of Indian cricket.

Recently, the former Indian captain called time on his international career, and now, Dhoni is expected to have all the media and fan focus on him throughout the course of the IPL Season 13. Over the past 12 years, the CSK skipper has already won three league titles with the franchise. The captain cool would be looking to add a fourth to his tally this time around.

With there being a question over his future in the T20 league too, many of Dhoni's fans want him to fetch the IPL title in the UAE.
