6 Indian cricketers who did not get enough chances under MS Dhoni
MS Dhoni is arguably the best captain in the history of Indian and world cricket.
5. Piyush Chawla
Piyush Chawla burst onto the scene at the international arena pretty early in March 2006 at the tender age of 17 during a Test match against England. The then emerging leggie was well groomed from there on and was all set to be the next champion spinner for India. Chawla was the only player of India’s 15-member squad who did not play a single game in their historic 2007 T20 World Cup triumph in South Africa.
From there on Chawla made his presence in the Indian team mostly on a regular basis and was also named in the squad for the 2011 World Cup that was co-hosted by India along with Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. The Aligarh cricketer played a few group matches before being benched after the Netherlands game which also turned out to be his final ODI appearance. The Men in Blue went on to lift the coveted trophy.
Nonetheless, Piyush Chawla was not given many chances post the World Cup triumph and he still somehow hung around there for over a year. He never donned the India jersey ever again after a home Test match against England in December 2012.
