5 Times when MS Dhoni lost his cool at his teammates
There have also been instances when the ice-cool MS Dhoni couldn’t stand certain things.
5. CSK batsmen – IPL 2019
Ever since Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have made a return to the IPL, MS Dhoni has been particular about getting things right. He’s hasn’t been afraid to lash out at his team members if they’ve not put in their full efforts. The CSK skipper has done that multiple times in post-match presentations and taken an indirect jib at his teammates.
One such instance was after CSK lost the first Qualifier against Mumbai Indians in Chennai. The batsmen couldn’t adjust to the slow nature of the wicket and ended up putting up just 131 runs on the board. Hence, in the post-match presentation, Dhoni lashed out at his batsmen. He wanted them to take more responsibility and adapt depending on how the pitch plays.
“These are the players who we have banked on, they have the experience and they should know to assess the conditions better, hopefully, we will do well in the next game. We needed to know how the pitch behaves, would it be tacky or not? Is the ball coming on or not? Those were the things we didn’t do well,” the CSK skipper was quoted saying.
