‘Hard Being Dhoni These Days’: Twitter On MSD’s Inning vs Windies

The star player’s performance got fans debating again about his inning against The Windies.

MS Dhoni took his time to warm up to the pitch before he hit 16 runs in the final over. His contribution of 56 runs took India to a total of 268 runs with 7 wickets down against West Indies on Thursday, 27 June.

The star player’s performance got fans debating again about his batting against the Windies.

While some appreciated Dhoni’s fitness as he took a diving catch off Jasprit Bumrah to dismiss Carlos Braithwaite, others joked how Dhoni only starts scoring on-filed in the last over.

However, some defended him and said “It’s very difficult to be Dhoni these days.”

#Dhoni knows what to do.. 16 runs off the last over.. His critics can keep quiet and let him play his game in the #ICCWorldCup2019 #InDhoniWeTrust

Second highest strike rate of the team.. still getting criticized for slow batting. It's very difficult to be Dhoni these days. #INDvsWI

Rashid Khan had gone for 25 in 4 overs , gave away only 13 in his next 6 and today Fabian Allen had given 34 in 5 overs, only 18 in next 5. Can't be so defensive against the spinners.

Yes, India has an excruciatingly long tail and India wouldn't have reached 250 if not for Dhoni's innings. But he needs to rotate strike and look to push the gaps in the middle overs and that can be done without taking any risk. Just that, MS. #CWC19

There has been a lot of debate lately on Dhoni’s ability to rotate the strike and the number of dot balls that he has faced in this World Cup. However, Dhoni has restored trust in fans with his performance behind the stumps.

India will play hosts England in their next match at Birmingham on Sunday, 30 June.
