MS Dhoni was known as captain cool for keeping calm under some of the most stressful circumstances.

Viewers got one more glimpse of his ‘cool’ and ‘calm’ behaviour on Sunday during the third one-day international between India and Sri Lanka.

India were 210 for four after 44 overs, needing another eight runs to win, when players were sent back into the dressing room after the crowds in the stadium turned unruly and started throwing bottles.

Agitated by home team’s inevitable loss, the crowds stopped play for nearly half an hour.

This was during this halt, MS Dhoni instead of going back to dressing room, lied down and took a nap on the field.
