Dale Steyn : In fact, I was even willing to take a pay cut just to be in the CSK environment. I was ready to sit on CSK's bench if it meant being part of the team.#WhistlePodu #IPL #CSK @MSDhonipic.twitter.com/vOOXNBQPLY

“I have always been a big admirer of MS Dhoni and I always asked the players playing in Chennai, ‘How does he work because I’m a bowler, he is a captain, a wicketkeeper. There’s a good relation between the captain and a wicketkeeper and a bowler and wicketkeeper. So, I wanted to know how that relationship works. So there was always a part of me that hoped I might get the nod from Chennai and might be able to go over there,” Steyn said.

“I just wanted to be in that environment, just to see how this man, who has won World Cups, ICC Champions Trophy, IPLs, how does his mind and how does he function. I was even willing to take a pay cut or play cut,” he further added.
