Former England batter Ian Bell recently expressed his desire to see former Indian skipper and legendary wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni at the Legends League Cricket (LLC). Bell, leading the India Capitals opened up on the potential impact of Dhoni's presence in the league.
When asked which legend he would pick to play in the LLC, Bell chose the former India captain and felt sharing the dressing room with him would be a delight for everyone in the team.
"Oh MS Dhoni, oh yeah, just to play in his team... Obviously I played enough cricket against him. He has a lot of presence about him, a calmness. But it would be great just to share a dressing room for one game...would be quite nice. So, we'll have to speak to the guys [LLC administration] and see if we can get him in," said Bell in an exclusive conversation with CricTracker on the sidelines of the Legends League Cricket (LLC).

Listening to MS Dhoni's experiences would be great: Ian Bell
The Englishman believes that Dhoni's presence in the change room will help others in getting invaluable insights about how to stay calm during pressure situations. "But just to listen to his experiences and [see] his calmness under pressure would be great...," he added.
Meanwhile, there are questions around Dhoni's future in the Indian Premier League (IPL) currently as Chennai Super Kings yet to confirm their retentions ahead of the upcoming mega auction. However, it is largely expected that the former CSK skipper will don the yellow jersey once again as the recent rule change introduced by the IPL Governing Council will allow the franchise to retain him as an uncapped player.
