June 22, 2015 20:20

MS Dhoni's captaincy is under the scanner after India's defeats in the ODIs against Bangladesh. However, cricketing great Sunil Gavaskar has come to his defence.

Speaking to NDTV, Gavaskar praised Dhoni for his contribution to Indian cricket. "Dhoni deserves respect. I don't think it is fair to ask him to step aside. You can't take the achievements away from him and he has been India's best skipper by far," said Gavaskar.

"Out of sheer respect for him, we should let him take a call on his future as captain of the ODI," he added.
