The moniker “Captain Cool,” which captures his cool-headed leadership style on the cricket pitch, has been trademarked by former Indian captain MS Dhoni. The application was formally published in the trademark journal on June 16 and has been designated as “accepted and advertised,” according to the Trade Marks Registry.
sporting training, coaching, sporting facilities, and associated services are among the categories under which the trademark has been registered. On June 5, MS Dhoni submitted his application. Remarkably, Prabha Skill Sports (OPC) Pvt Ltd, another organisation, had already applied for the same phrase. Their application does, however, now have the status “rectification filed,” which denotes a correcting procedure.
MS Dhoni was just inducted into the 2025 class of the ICC Hall of Fame.
He joins former South African opener Hashim Amla and Australian great Matthew Hayden on the esteemed list.
The ICC statement read, “MS Dhoni’s legacy as one of the game’s greatest finishers, leaders, and wicketkeepers has been honoured with his induction into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame. He is renowned for his composure under pressure and unparalleled tactical acumen, but he was also a trailblazer in the shorter format.”
The ICC acknowledged MS Dhoni outstanding career and pointed out that his greatness went beyond his stats to encompass exceptional longevity, consistency, and fitness. Calm leadership, keen tactical intuition, and a string of historic victories characterised his captaincy.
After taking over as captain in 2007, the 43-year-old made an impression right away by winning the first-ever T20 World Cup with India. He became the only captain to win all three ICC white-ball trophies after winning the 2011 ODI World Cup at home and the 2013 Champions Trophy in England.
In addition, India momentarily topped the ICC Test rankings while he was captain, solidifying his reputation as one of the game’s most significant captains. He is renowned for encouraging up-and-coming talent and for having a significant influence on the development of the following generation of Indian cricket players.
