"He isn't overly enthusiastic. He doesn't have a lot of self-doubt. Anything can happen at any time. He's a big believer in the future. He believes he is capable of accomplishing anything.

I'm going to attempt to include that composure, as well as the notion that any game can be won from any position "Pretorius made the announcement to the press in New Delhi, which will host the first Twenty20 International on Thursday.

"If you have to defend 18 off the final three balls as a bowler, you can still lose the match; yet, if you have to defend 18 off the last three balls as a batsman, you can win it.

Pretorius and Dhoni's most memorable match was against Mumbai Indians at the DY Patil Stadium on April 21.

CSK needed 17 runs from five balls after Pretorius was removed, and Dhoni got them there with a four off the final delivery.


Despite the fact that he is not South Africa's traditional batsman, Pretorius saw that match as an example of Dhoni's ability to finish games.

"I'm going to try to combine both the calmness and the idea that any game can be won from any position" into his playing.


"It's a plus because the CSK franchise has a lot of experience. We all know that cricket isn't always a good idea."Pretorius believes so.

"In order to construct a stronger future, it's vital to focus on the positive aspects of a challenging season.


It's all about planning for the next year or three years and making sure that a bad season doesn't turn into a disaster."

"It's something I really enjoy. I realise it lengthens the game, but it just divides it into three sections: the one before, the one in the middle, and the one after.


It allows each side to evaluate their approach and determine the best course of action "he stated
