Brand Dhoni
In just a couple of years Dhoni has matched up to Sachin's brand image.He has been seen in major endorsements.He is a emerging as a bigger brand than Sachin.Dhoni's success as a captain in one day cricket team,T-20 and IPL has made him so popular.His agressive and go getter attitude helps him to be a longer brand ambassador.He has been endorsing everything from clothes to soft drinks to watches.He has steadily established his representing the youth.He has also been a new style icon.He is endorsing only national brands.But he has yet to match up to Sachin.
