Former Indian captain MS Dhoni feels players in the country still hesitate to accept that they have some weakness. As when it comes to mental perspective regarding the weakness, that's why a mental conditioning coach should be constantly with the team. Dhoni and Kohli emphasize for constant company of mental coach

"In India, I feel there is still a big issue of accepting that there is some weakness when it comes to the mental aspects, but we generally term it as mental illness," Dhoni said in an interview with various coaches of sports conducted by MFORE.

"Nobody really says that, when I go to bat, the first 5 to 10 deliveries my heart rate is elevated, I feel the pressure, I feel a bit scared because that's how everybody feels - how to cope with that?

"This is a small problem but a lot of times we hesitate to say it to a coach and that's why the relationship between a player and coach is very important be it any sport," he added. Emphasizing on the mental conditioning coach, the former skipper says: "Mental conditioning coach should not be the one who comes for 15 days, because when you come for 15 days, you are only sharing the experience." "If the mental conditioning coach is constantly with the player, he can understand what are the areas which are affecting his sport." Current skipper Virat Kohli emphasized on how the players can overcome difficult mental situation during the games, he said: "I think mental health and mental clarity is the most important factor in life; not just in sports." MFORE is a non-proft initiative launched by former Indian batsman S Badrinath along with Saravana Kumar. They aimed at offering mind conditioning programs to achieve peak performance during games through mental council. "Badrinath and MFORE helping these cricketers will go a long way in them understanding themselves better and going out there and performing despite the conditions and situations being difficult for them," Kohli said. Badrinath's former teammate, Ravichandran Ashwin also spoke about MFORE initiative and said: "It's an extraordinary initiative on Badri's behalf. Lot of people address skills, speak about the mental aspect of the game. But no one can really put a roadmap and say what really a cricketer needs mentally. "How can you disconnect the mind when you're playing? These are things that are crucial for any athlete. Your mind constantly cross-questions you and gives negative vibes from inside which is only natural. "So, to be able to create a platform for such people to ask for help is an amazing initiative. I urge people to be more honest about themselves and understand that they need help. Understanding and asking for help by itself is very courageous," he added.
