MS Dhoni with daughter Ziva

Most fathers have a special bond with their daughters, and India wicketkeeper-batsman MS Dhoni is no exception. On the sidelines of a promotional event in the city yesterday, Dhoni revealed that his daughter, Ziva, three, is a huge stress reliever.

"It's good to have someone like her around. She's a live-wire. From the time she wakes up in the morning, she's always on the move. She's very careful about what she does, so we are not worried that she may get hurt herself. It feels good to have her around as she eases the stress," Dhoni said yesterday.

Interestingly, the former India captain revealed that wherever he goes nowadays, people tend to ask more about her than him. "She's hardly three-and-a-half but she has her own character. Wherever I go, people ask me, 'where is Ziva' or 'what is she doing'. I am nowhere in the scene."
