Chennai: He is the quintessential 'Captain Cool' on the cricket field but at home, Mahendra Singh Dhoni says it's his wife Sakshi who calls the shots and he never comes in the way as "I know I can be happy only if she is happy".

Speaking at an event here, the 38-year-old former captain, who led India to two world titles and is currently on a sabbatical, joked about marriage and love. He married Sakshi in 2010. "All men are like lions until they get married," he said much to the amusement of a packed hall at an event organised by matrimonial site 'BharatMatrimony' on Tuesday night.
