For further explanation, let us recall the Under-19 match between Bihar and Punjab which was shown in the biopic. MS Dhoni playing for the Bihar team and Yuvraj Singh leading the Punjab team. After losing the match, MS Dhoni (Sushant) in the movie says,
“Toh day 2 mein hum out ho gaye 84 run pe, pura team out ho gya 357 run pe. Punjab batting karne aata hai, unka pehla wicket girta hai 60 pe, fir batting karne aata hai Yuvraj Singh.

What Actually Happened At The Basketball Court?
Coming to reality nothing much happened on the basketball court. MS Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh met each other. They crossed each other and their eyes met for a fraction of seconds. MS Dhoni continuously looked back at Yuvraj Singh. But Yuvraj Singh had not given any importance to Dhoni. Here Dhoni lost in the psychological battle. They discussed the amazing performances of Yuvraj Singh. As a result, they lost their self-confidence. All the team members considered Yuvraj as the superior. You can win the game only when you are confident irrespective of the power of the opposition. The moment when Dhoni looked back Yuvraj Singh on the basketball court, he lost the confidence. So, he lost the match. This is the “MANTRA OF SUCCESS“.
However, they both played a lot of matches and created the history. They made the dream of all the people true. They lifted the world cup after 28years.
