MS Dhoni once said he doesn’t appear in a lot of interviews and it’s indeed a rare thing to see him speaking to journalists these days. But a video has surfaced online, where the Ranchi-based cricketer could be seen addressing to students of a school.

In that Q & A session, Dhoni talked about his favorite subject and his being an average student. He shared his class 10th and 12th board exam results.

Does sport qualify as a subject? [on his favorite subject] I was an average student till I started playing cricket in Class seven, so from that point onwards, my attendance slightly started to go down. But other than that, I was a good student. [In the] tenth, I got 66 percent or something; In 12th, I got 56 or 57 percent.”

He then revealed that his father was happy when he managed to pass 10th board exam. He jokingly said how he had no clue about the chapters in class 10th.

My attendance was very low because I was playing throughout. So, it was tough for me, but I was an average student. In fact, in Class 10 boards, there were chapters I had no clue about. So, I had no idea what to write if a question came from that particular chapter. That how bad it was.”

I was very happy. My father thought that I am not passing [10th board exam]. He was like, it’s gone, I will have to repeat, but he was very happy that I passed.
