Gavaskar in a Q&A session on Star Sports, Gavaskar was asked which team he would like to represent in the IPL.While his first choice was MI, he named CSK as his second preference due to the Dhoni factor.
"If not Mumbai Indians then I would like to play for Chennai Super Kings. Chennai Super Kings for two reasons, firstly, the Chennai owners are passionate about cricket, they have done so much for the sport. Srinivasan sir has done a lot for cricket. And the second big reason would be to sit in the dressing room with MS Dhoni and see how he captains the team. Is he as calm and composed in the dressing room as he is on the field? Does he lose his cool when someone has dropped a catch or somebody didnt back up a fielder? Thats what I would like to know," Gavaskar said.
