Back to school : Way to go Captain Dhoni

Of all the Super sports persons of India, Captain Mahindra Singh Dhoni is the one, worthy to be called a 'Role Model'. He has one of the best heads on his shoulders. Not only has he been excellent on field, he is now making waves by getting back to school, college in-fact, and set an example to many that education will always help in anyone's future. He plans to join St. Xaviers college and complete his B.Com. Thats amazing. Sachin, though is so popular and extremely rich is only a 10th class pass candidate. Can you believe that? His achievements have more than covered up for his lack of education. This should and can not always be the case though. Education is of utmost importance. You cannot be a superstar and be a dumb guy right? One needs to be circumspect, for that, you need education. Shah Rukh Khan is one such guy. He is so knowledgable that even if some very intelligent guy poses questions to him, im sure he will be able to answer more than 50% of the them and more than that, he will bowl him over with his wit. I just cannot stop praising Shah Rukh. He's amazing.

If all the team members are to be taken into consideration, not many have completed graduation. I cant think of any in fact. The only people that come into mind when a combo of education and career in sports are Venkatesh Prasad and Javagal Srinath. Both these amazing bowlers who played for India have completed graduation and are engineers. Completing education or atleast graduation, (PG is too much to ask for) will help anyone because, not everyone can click in the world of sports. Its a dog eat dog world out there. So even if somebody doesnt click he can always fall back on his education and make a different career.

Dhoni, if he keeps his focus and head straight, could well become a legend. He could be one of the best captains that India ever had.

Way to go Dhoni!!
