After England beating the Mighty India by 86 runs ,It was the 2nd one-Day International at the Lords on last Saturday. It has been experienced by cricket lovers across the globe that MS Dhoni , in the past couple of years has grappled to finish high pressure game. And exactly the same has been also reflected in the ODI at the Lords on Saturday where his meticulous 37 out of 58 balls led team India to the door of defeat.

In this regard the former Indian Spinner Harbhajan Singh added: “Today was definitely a different Dhoni we got to see.

Mr. Singh again urged,” He normally does take his time, but then once he’s in he looks for the boundary. But, today he was short of partners, though he still probably defended too many balls.”
In this time of crisis , the super skipper Virat Kohli bravely came forward to save and secure the image of another super skipper Mahender Singh Dhoni to make him out of present day’s trends of criticism against him.

Defending Mr. Dhoni,India’s the most successful skipper and batsman Kohli told,” “It’s very unfortunate people just jump to conclusions very quickly and when he does well, people call him the best finisher ever and when they don’t go well, they all pounce on him.”
Mr. Virat Kohli with as if the utmost faith on Dhoni told again, “We all have bad days in cricket and today was a bad one for everyone, not just him.Also, you want to take the innings deep; you don’t want to just lose by 160-170 runs, and he has the experience, but some days it just doesn’t come off.”
Kohli with his strong believe and faith concluded,”Other people jump to conclusions, but we don’t – we totally believe in him.”
