At the 2026 T20 World Cup, MS Dhoni believes that India are "one of the most dangerous teams." With a 51-8 win-loss record in T20Is since October 2023, India, the tournament's defending champions, will enter the competition. They have some of the best six-hitters in the world in their batting lineup, and Jasprit Bumrah and Varun Chakravarthy are two of the best bowlers in the game. Dhoni stated at an event, "Everything that is needed in a good team is there." "They have the experience, especially in this format, which is extensive. They have performed under stress. They have been in that position for a significant amount of time, regardless of the roles they are playing on the team." Dew, which can tip the balance in favor of the chasing team during a night game, is one thing that worries Dhoni. He stated, "What worries me, again, I hate dew." Many things are altered by dew. Even when I was playing, dew, where the toss becomes crucial and all of that, was something that really scared me. Aside from that, the format's inherent unpredictability means that anyone can win on any given day. "If the conditions are neutral and everything else is the same, we will win most of our ten matches against some of the best teams. "The problem arises when, in T20 cricket, some of your players take a day off and someone from the opposition has a fantastic day. So that's the time to pray, regardless of whether you're in the league or knockout stages. You should know that no one should be hurt. Individuals should carry out their assigned responsibilities for the team, regardless of their roles. I don't want to mislead you, but if that's the case, it's one of the most dangerous teams."
