In the match against Delhi Capitals on Wednesday, Dhoni won the hearts of the fans by scoring 20 runs in just 9 balls, but this player was seen limping during his innings. When Dhoni was running between the wickets, this player was limping a bit. Former cricketer Irfan Pathan, who was doing commentary in the match, also shared this with the fans by tweeting.
Seeing Dhoni limping thru running between the wickets breaks my heart. Have seen him run like a cheetah. — Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) May 10, 2023
Dhoni is not fully fit!
Is Mahendra Singh Dhoni not fully fit? This question is in the mind of every fan and Irfan Pathan's tweet is enough to bring worry lines on his forehead. Irfan Pathan tweeted after Chennai's victory that it broke his heart to see Dhoni limping in the middle of the wicket. He has seen Dhoni running like a leopard.
Let us tell you that Dhoni suffered a knee injury during the IPL last month. However, due to this injury, Dhoni did not miss any matches. It is believed that Dhoni is not fully fit but despite this, he is coming on the field. Dhoni is playing the match but it is clear that he is not fully fit. However, the big thing here is that Dhoni should not get into a lot of trouble due to this injury in big matches. If this happens then it will be a big blow for the fans of Chennai.
DO NOT MISS!
