IPL 2019: MS Dhoni is the most successful bowler in IPL history. The great MS Dhoni, known for his calm and composed nature on the cricket field, is considered one of the greatest captains in the history of the game. He also got the nickname of ‘Captain Cool’ by his fans. However, Dhoni has been seen getting angry on the cricket field many times by the fans. One of the biggest incidents among these was during IPL 2019 when Dhoni entered the field in the middle of the match due to a no ball controversy and started fighting with the umpires. Now former CSK fast bowler Mohit Sharma has spoken on this incident and told what was the atmosphere in the dressing room at that time. Let us tell you, during the 2019 IPL, there was a controversy when the umpire took back the decision after giving a no ball during a match against Rajasthan Royals. In the last over, CSK needed some 8 runs to win. One of Ben Stokes’ balls was above the waist, one umpire gave it a no ball while the other umpire standing at square leg overturned the decision. Mahi got furious and entered the field to fight with the umpire. We were shouting, don’t go, don’t go, don’t go – Mohit Sharma said about MS Dhoni Recalling this incident, Mohit Sharma said on the 2 Sloggers podcast, “We were in the dugout, we were shouting, don’t go, don’t go, don’t go. But he didn’t even look back. He went like this, when it seemed like a lion had entered. He was already angry because he got out at the wrong time. He had just come to the dugout after getting out and the next ball was a no ball and the umpire did not give it.” He further said, “When he returned, he asked me to bring the laptop. Then the video analyst showed him the video and he said, ‘It was a no-ball.’ However, he also regretted going to the field. But the match was so exciting that all this happened in the blink of an eye.”
