“We were shouting at Doug, don’t go, don’t go, don’t go, but…” – Mohit Sharma said on Dhoni’s dispute with the umpire

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.”

“CSK is better than Mumbai Indians because…”, Krishnappa Gautam created a sensation with this statement

What I like most about CSK is that they will make sure you are comfortable – Krishnappa Gowtham Krishnappa Gowtham and MS Dhoni (Photo Source: BCCI) Indian player Krishnappa Gautam believes that the dressing room of Chennai Super Kings is better than the dressing room of Mumbai Indians. Krishnappa Gautam was seen playing for Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2024. Earlier, he has been a part of Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings, Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings. They will make sure you are comfortable – Krishnappa Gowtham Krishnappa Gowtham, while talking in an exclusive interview with CricTracker, said that Mumbai Indians leave no stone unturned in taking care of their players. On the other hand, Chennai Super Kings not only takes care of their players but also ensures that their families are happy, everyone is in a good mood and mental state and this is what makes CSK special. Krishnappa Gautham said, I think Mumbai has a very professional setup. When it comes to Mumbai, everything is very organised. When it comes to Chennai, they are also professional and organised. They have everything that Mumbai has, but what I like most about CSK is that they will make sure that you are comfortable and at the same time they will make sure that your whole family is comfortable. They believe that if people around you are comfortable and they are happy, then you can perform at your best. They make sure that everyone is in a good condition and a good mental state. Before IPL 2017, Mumbai Indians bought Krishnappa Gowtham for 2 crores, but he did not get opportunities and the franchise released him before the 2018 mega auction. Rajasthan Royals bought Gowtham in the mega auction, that season he played 15 matches and took 11 wickets at an economy of 7.80. Krishnappa played a brilliant innings of 33 runs in 11 balls in the match against Mumbai Indians, on the basis of which Rajasthan Royals defeated Mumbai by 3 wickets at Wankhede. Krishnappa Gowtham was an important part of Rajasthan Royals’ playing 11 in IPL 2018, but he did not get many opportunities in 2019. He played only 7 matches and was released by the franchise before the upcoming season. Krishnappa played two matches for Punjab Kings in IPL 2020 and was released again. In IPL 2021, Chennai Super Kings bought Krishnappa Gowtham for a huge price of Rs 9.25 crore. However, he did not get a chance to play a single match that season.

If Mahi tells you that you have everything to succeed at the international level, then boss, that is an achievement in itself. Recalling a match that season, Tushar said- In one match I was bowling a good yorker, but suddenly I bowled a bouncer and got hit for a 100-meter six.
