Cricket World Cup 2019 saw a painfully slow innings from India in the recent India vs Afghanistan match. India still won, thanks to Mohammed Shami’s glorious hat-trick. But like any other match of India, it has brought on a different story that is catching fire.
In his assessment of the match, ‘the God of cricket’ Sachin Tendulkar reviewed Dhoni’s performance negatively. According to Tendulkar, Dhoni who had a slow innings of 28 off 52 balls, should show positive intent. He said, “MS Dhoni is a senior player and should show positive intent. Afghanistan’s bowling is good but you can’t score only 119 runs in 34 overs. He did not show any positive intent against Afghanistan. MS Dhoni has the ability to hit but yesterday his strike rotation was not good. He faced too many dot balls and this hampered a strong finish for India. The intent could have been much better by the middle order batsmen. I believe MS Dhoni needs to up his ante when it comes to strike rotation in next matches”.
Needless to say, Twitter burst out with its own opinions on this comment. While some are not happy with Sachin’s remark and are reminding him that he has had low points in his career too; others are of the view that he is right.
So, what are your thoughts about Master Blaster’s assessment of our ex-captain ‘cool’?
