Stump-hoarding MS Dhoni eyes more memorabilia

After all, inaugural champions India go into the sixth edition of the tournament as the top-ranked team in the world.

Kolkata: Mahendra Singh Dhoni has grown a reputation as a notorious hoarder of souvenir stumps and considering India’s imperious form going into the World Twenty20, few would be surprised if he adds one more to his formidable collection on April 3. After all, inaugural champions India go into the sixth edition of the tournament as the top-ranked team in the world, having won 10 of their 11 matches this year.

Dhoni already has set his eyes on collecting more memorabilia. “It would be great. I have to do my post-cricket plans you see,” he said at a promotional event. “I don’t mark the stumps that I collect. (Post-retirement) I’d watch the matches, look at the stumps and say ‘ok, this is from that match’. I have enough to keep me occupied for years.”
