The reason why I said young was actually the amount of practice he was doing pre-season, the amount of hard work he was putting in and I think he was playing the best I&#8217;ve ever seen since the last five or six years. So I really feel he&#8217;s in his prime twenties. He is playing that kind of cricket right now. Definitely he&#8217;s still quite young and many more years to come for him to play.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dhoni has the third best strike rate this IPL season.
