India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni's wife gave birth to their first child on Friday and while he was delighted by the arrival of his daughter he was totally focussed on the World Cup.

Sakshi gave birth at a private hospital in Gurgaon and asked if he would have rather preferred to stay in India in recent days, he responded in negative.

"Not really. I have been blessed with a baby daughter. Mum and daughter both are good," he said at a pre-World Cup media briefing on Saturday.

"But (the) World Cup is a very important campaign, and everything can wait as of now."
