\"MahendraDhaka:<\/strong> Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni<\/a> advised the youngsters not to try and take unnecessary pressure in their quest to replicate their senior counterparts like Rahul Dravid<\/a> or Sachin Tendulkar.<\/a><\/p>\n

“Every individual is different and anyone who comes in the side should not even think of replacing the kind of seniors that we have got,” said Dhoni ahead of the four nations Asia Cup.<\/p>\n

“The youngsters will (put themselves) under tremendous pressure if they start to think like that. They are legends of the game, enjoyed the sport and played with the right kind of spirit throughout. It’s tough to replace Kumble, Rahul, Sachin, Laxman, Sourav. So there is no point thinking you have players who will replace them,”he added.<\/p>\n

The way youngsters have been performing in recent past has made it evident that they have in them to make it big, but Dhoni urged them to take their time to establish themselves.<\/p>\n

“Every individual is special, he brings special character into the side so definitely somebody will get an opportunity to become a hero for team India,” said Dhoni.<\/p>\n

“Maybe in 10 to 12 years’ time you will have a cricketer who will be very successful. But to say whether they will replace Rahul or talent like that, it’s difficult,” said the skipper.<\/p>\n

Meanewhile Dhoni also lauded Dravid and his contribution to the team. Dhoni in praise of Dravid said, \u201cHe was someone who loved challenges. He is someone who will definitely be missed. He is the ideal role model and a good ambassador for the sport.”<\/p>\n
