MS Dhoni has won the hearts of the cricket universe once again with a kind gesture on the field. During the match between the Royal Challengers Bangalore and the Chennai Super Kings in the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League, uncapped bowler Mukesh Choudhary took the big wicket of Virat Kohli. However, he could not impress much as a fielder during that innings.
Just after that, Dhoni had a brief word with Choudhary, and this gesture won the hearts of the fans on the social media platforms. They heaped praise on Dhoni.
Talking about the match that happened between the Royal Challengers Bangalore and the Chennai Super Kings first, RCB captain Faf du Plessis won the toss and decided to field first. CSK posted a 216-run total on the board, riding on fifties from Shivam Dube and Robin Uthappa.
Speaking after the match, Uthappa, who played the best knock of his IPL career, told the host broadcasters:
“During Maxwell’s third over, I knew I had to take it on. When Hasaranga was bowling and the spinners in general, I was happy to let him take them on. He can hit the huge sixes. I did try to take more of the strike against the fast bowlers though.”
