MS Dhoni’s performance at the World Cup has raised several questions on his efficacy as a finisher. While India was chasing a stiff total in the match against England in Birmingham on Sunday, MS Dhoni started slowly and failed to hit boundaries towards the end. Moreover, India lost the match to England by 31 runs with MS Dhoni at the crease.
“I think MS (Dhoni) was trying really hard to get the boundary but it wasn’t coming off,” said after the match..
“They bowled in good areas and the ball was stopping, hence it was difficult to bat towards the end. We have to sit and assess and improve on things in the next game,” he added.
MS Dhoni’s unbeaten stand of 39Â runs with Kedar Jadhav also came under severe criticism for lacking intent once again by fans and media.
The matter earlier came into limelight when the duos approach was highlighted by cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar after the India vs Afghanistan World Cup 2019 clash.
