Olympic gold-winning sprinter questions Dhoni's captaincy
I don't know
where the tune has been cut by Chennai Super Kings. Nothing is going well in
this IPL. The middle order is not burning, the bowlers are not able to stop the
runs in the slog overs. Mahendra Singh Dhoni is no longer playing match-winning
innings like before. Even his captaincy is being questioned! Despite being on
the backfoot for a long time against Delhi Capitals yesterday, Chennai took a
sudden lead in the last over. Chennai's English all-rounder Sam Karen bowled
just 4 runs in the 19th over. As a result, Delhi needed 16 in the last over.
With two left-arm batsmen on the wicket, Chennai skipper Dhoni handed over the
ball to Rabindra Jadeja in the last over. Akshar Patel hit three sixes and
scored 22 runs off 5 balls. Sprinter Johan Blake cannot accept Dhoni's
decision.
Collectively
as time is the second fastest human Blake in history. The presence of a
superhuman like Usain Bolt at the 2012 Olympics did not allow him to win a
single Olympic gold. Swadeshi won silver in the 100 and 200 meters from behind
Bolt. He also set an Olympic record for the fastest runner not to win gold in
the 200 meters. Being Bolt's partner in the relay, he finally got the coveted
gold. However, after winning the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, he came to the
discussion with cricket after a long time. Born in Jamaica, Blake is a cricket
fan. Regularly tweets about Test cricket, Caribbean Premier League (CPL) or
IPL. And because of that, Blake, known as 'The Beast', suddenly expressed his
displeasure over Dhoni's captaincy.
Blake could
not stop himself when he saw Dhoni handing the ball to Jadeja in the last over.
This is the worst decision Dhoni has made in the last few days, he wrote on
Twitter. In the end, the decision to bowl Jadeja was very bad. What happened to
Bravo? Mahendra Singh Dhoni, very very very very very bad decision. You can't
send Jadeja to bowl against a left-handed batsman.
Dhoni could
not get the ball even if he wanted Bravo tomorrow. Death over specialist Dwayne
Bravo left the field because he was not fit before. Dhoni said he had only two
bowlers in his hands. Either Jadeja or leg-spinner Karna Sharma. Dhoni gave the
ball to the experienced Jadeja. Blake didn't know that. On Twitter, Dhoni's
fans informed him of this information in quite harsh language. Blake did not
back down. The sprinter could not accept the ball to a left-arm spinner in such
a situation, ‘I understand that Bravo is injured but still I would not give the
ball to Jadeja. Because I have Shane Watson who can bowl fast. '
Indian fans
get angry when they criticize an Indian star on Twitter. Tomorrow is no
exception. On the one hand, the team is not doing well, on the other hand, the
Dhoni fans could not accept the criticism of the favorite captain. To protect
himself, Blake retweeted, "I love the game. I tell everyone in India that
I love you. We enjoy the game of cricket that we love so much. It doesn't
matter which team is playing when you love the game so much. I support
everyone. Telling the people of India, I love you. But I used to bowl with
Shane Watson. '
