5 Most emotional moments in MS Dhoni: The Untold Story

2. Misses the opportunity to play Duleep Trophy:

Most of his friends and people in Ranchi who knew about his game were expecting Dhoni to be picked for the Under-19 World Cup in 2000 but the selectors went ahead with Ajay Ratra. Later that year he was selected for representing his zonal team in the Duleep Trophy but the news wasn’t conveyed to him.

It was only when one of his friends read it in the newspaper that they realized he was selected and had to reach Kolkata airport by 9 am next morning to join the team. They went to people seeking help but just ended up wasting time and in the end had to make their own arrangements to reach the airport.

His friends drove the entire night and they reached the airport but by that time the plane had departed and he lost one of the biggest opportunities to showcase himself at a bigger level. The movie shows that Dhoni was extremely disappointed when he received this blow, he couldn’t believe it but composed himself pretty soon to get back to business.
