Dhoni gets special compliment from Tom Moody

Former Australian all-rounder Tom Moody has commended the leadership skills of Dhoni for effectively nurturing and harnessing the potential of young talents like Tushar Deshpande and Matheesha Pathirana during the team’s victorious IPL 2023 campaign. Moody expressed his admiration for the Indian cricket legend, stating that Dhoni possesses the exceptional ability to discover and refine promising talents.

Among the standout performers for CSK in their impressive campaign, pacers Deshpande and Pathirana shone brightly, ??claiming 21 and 19 wickets respe??ctively.

“CSK have had many great campaigns, but this would have to be up there among their best. Given the circumstances of the squad they have – it’s not a squad that at the start of the season that you would think is bursting at the seams with a lot of experience and match-winning players. But, what it does have is a captain called MS Dhoni,” Moody was quoted as saying to ESPNCricinfo.

“What he does is provides that stability, leadership and guidance better than anyone in this format of the game. He manages to draw the very best of whether it be a senior player like a [Ajinkya] Rahane or he helps develop a player like [Shivam] Dube to play above a level that he’s never been before. He manages to unearth and polish rough diamonds like Deshpande and Pathirana. MS Dhoni is the master at doing it,” added the cricketer-turned coach.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s association with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) has made him inseparable from the team and the people of Tam?il Nadu ever since the inception of IPL. As the undisputed leader of the franchise, the former Indian skipper, now 41 years old, has been embraced as an honorary member of the state. In the current season, CSK has shown exceptional perform??ance, firmly securing the second position in the rankings.

Despite his unwavering commitment to cricket, Dhoni’s bond with his daughter Ziva has grown stronger than ever. Demonstrating their close relationship, CSK shared an endearing video on social media that showcased Dhoni’s daughter playing football at the iconic Chepauk stadium. The video also featured former CSK batsman Robin Uthappa, who wore a Chennai kit while his son Neale enjoyed batting, bowling and fielding alongwith Moeen Ali’s son.

Interestingly, it seems that Dhoni’s daughter has developed a greater inclination towards football rather than following in her father’s cricketing footsteps. Prior to CSK’s match against the Delhi Capitals (DC), Dhoni was spotted in a different mood as he took some time off on t??he ground, possibly contemplating his personal life and che??rishing these special moments.

A triumph against DC would significantly bolster CSK’s chances of securing a spot in the IPL playoffs, as they have effectively overcome the challenges they faced in the previous season. Furthermore, if Dhoni manages to guide his team to lift the IPL trophy this time, he would equal Rohit Sharma’s record in terms of the number of titles won, further solidifying his legacy as one of the most accomplished captains in the tournament’s history.

Meanwhile, Rohit-led Mumbai Indians (MI) have moved up to the third spot in the points table after registering an emphatic victory over the Royal Chal??lengers Bangalore (RCB) in their last game.

After the glorious victory in Dubai, Dhoni said: “Before I start talking about CSK, it’s important I talk about KKR. For the position they were in after the first phase, it is very difficult to come back and do what they have done. If any team deserved to win the IPL this year, I feel it was KKR. I think the break helped them.”

Sakshi, wife of former Indian cricket team skipper MS Dhoni, celebrated her 32nd birthday on Thursday in Dubai. ??She took to Instagram to share a picture ?with her husband, which soon went viral.

Dhoni’s IPL franchise, Chennai Super Kings (CSK), also uploaded a video on Sakshi’s special day and in it she can be heard revealing quite a few secrets, from who can upset Dhoni to what she thought of his long orange hair, which he used to sport at the start of his international career.

Sakshi started off by saying tha?t she is the only person who can upset and provoke?? Mahi.

“Kahin aur ka gussa comes out on me. I’m fine with it,” said Sakshi??, revealing that Dhoni is closest to her.

Sakshi also said that they don’t talk about cricket at home and went on to reveal that their daughter Ziva listens to her father at one go while she had to make ten attempts to make her do her work.

“First of all, we don’t discuss cricket. That’s his profession. They are professionals. You cannot talk about his baby, his love.”

“She (Ziva) only listens to him. If I’m telling do something. If I’m telling her to finish your food quickly or eat this vegetable, I’ll have to tell her 10 times, including Mahi’s mother, including Sheila aunty. Mahi will tell her once and it will just happen in a jiffy,” Sakshi added.

Sakshi further shared her thoughts on Dhoni’s “John Abraham” hairdo.

“Luckily I did not see him with long hair because if I had seen him in that orange long hair, I wouldn’t have ever looked at him. There has to be aesthetics. John (Abraham) it sorted of suited him that time, but Mahi with long hair and with that orange colour on top, was like….”

Sakshi then spoke about Dhoni not being with her during Ziva’s birth but she’s completely fine with it.

“Ziva was like a pre-planned baby. It was going to happen during the World Cup and it didn’t make sense for him to come back and see her. Everybody in the hospital was like, ‘Oh your husband is not coming’. I was like it’s fine, cricket is his priority and he’s my priority. When you are in love you can’t call it a sacrifice. You just do it because you love that person,” Sakshi said in the video.

MS Dhoni and his team Chenna Super Kings (CSK) were brutally trolled on social media after they lost to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) by ten runs in their sixth game of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). CSK failed to chase down the set-target of 168 runs despite remaining in a strong position for the most part of the game as Varun Chakravarthy, Andre Russell and Sunil Narine combined to pull thin?gs back in the death overs for KKR.

After the loss, Dhoni’s family was also targeted by the trollers. The CSK skipper’s five-year-old daughter Ziva received rape threats on Instagram which led to massive outrage on social media with Irfan Pathan and other cricketers raising their voice a??gainst online ?abuse.

Now, former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has reacted to Dhoni’s family receiving threats online over his team’s poor show in the IPL 2020. Afridi reminded everyone of Dhoni’s contributions to Indian cricket and said he doesn’t deserve such treatment.

“I don’t know what sort of threats were directed at MS Dhoni & his family but it’s not right & shouldn’t happen. Dhoni’s the person who has taken Indian cricket to new heights. He’s taken junior & senior players along this journey & doesn’t deserve such treatment,” Afridi was quoted as saying by Pakistani journalist Saj Sadiq on Twitter.

Security has been beefed up at MS Dhoni’s farmhouse in Ranchi following violent threats to his family on social media after Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) defeat against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). Mahi’s wife Sakshi and daughter Ziva have stayed back in Ranchi while the IPL T20 is being held in the UAE.

Dhoni, the cricketing legend and former captain of Team India, is going through a bad phase in the IPL. His failure with?? the bat and CSK losing five of the seven matches led to a section of angry fans abuse him. A few reportedly issued even rape threats to his five-year-old daughter.

Taking no chances, Jharkhand Government has mounted a 24-hour vigil at Dhoni’s farmhouse and deployed a static ?force to kee?p a watch. Even the cyber cell is at work to track the ones who made such distasteful comments.

“Frequency of patrolling near Dhoni’s farmhouse has been increased. We are keeping a close watch on the movement of suspicious elements near the house. In addition to that, a squad has also been kept reserve at a certain distance from his farmhouse to deal with any exigency.

“A number of static force, which already was deployed in and around his farmhouse, has also been increased,” Rural SP Naushad Alam said accor??ding to New Indian Express.

The Vice-President of Jharkhand State Cricket Association (JSCA), Ajay Nath Shahdeo, also termed such an incident unfortunate and went on to say cricket sh?ould be watched for entertainment and nothing ??else.

“Cricket should only be seen as a medium of entertainment, but people are going beyond it, keeping others modesty on stake. This is really unfortunate,” he said.

Meanwhile, the y??oung cricketers of Jharkhand who idolise M?SD have decided to stage a protest at Albert Ekka Chowk in Ranchi.

Social media can be a vile place. Cricketers have often suffered the sharp edge of ‘fans’ after their off-day on the field. In the latest instance, the families of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) players, including Ziva, the five-year-old daughter of captain MS Dhoni, have received online threats via Twitter, In?stagram and Facebook.

The Super Kings, in their previous game, suffered a 10-run defeat ??against Kolkata Kni?ght Riders (KKR) after ???being ahead in the match till last three overs.

The personal form of Dhoni, Kedar Jadhav too ha??ve been criticised in the ongoing IPL. Dhoni made a 12-ball 11 before losing his wicket of KKR spinner Varun Chakravarthy’s wrong-un.

Jadhav was subjected to even sharper diatribe after he missed three balls in succession against Andre Russell in the death overs that stagnated what would have been a regulation chase. It has been speculated that Jadhav could be dropp?ed fro?m the team because of his underwhelming performances.

CSK head coach Stephen Fleming though supported Jadhav and said the righ?t-handed batsman would perform well sooner than later.

Irfan Pathan hits out at vile social media users

Following CSK’s dramatic defeat, Dhoni’s five-year-old daughter was also targetted by trollers. In the disturbing incident, she even received rape and physical abuse threats on social media. Several threats were noticed on Dhoni’s Twitter account as well as his wife Sakshi’s Instagram.

Reacting to the worrying incident, former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan has questioned the mentality of such people.

Irfan took to Twitter to highlight that players may not give their best on the field, but that doesn’t give anyone the right to give threats to a young child.

“All the players giving their best, sometimes it just doesn’t work but it’s doesn’t give anyone any authority to give a threat to a young child #mentality #respect,” tweeted Irfan.

Former India skipper MS Dhoni is currently in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with the rest of his Chennai Super Kings (CSK) teammates. MSD is girding up his loins for the thirteenth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Dhoni and other CSK players went to the ?Gulf nation without their families.

Meanwhile, the CSK captain’s daughter Ziva, who is one of the passionate supporters of Super Kings, has posted an adorable video with her mother Sakshi on Instagram. She captioned the post as: “Papa’s biggest fan”.

In the video, Ziva can be seen holding a pencil sketch of her father as Sakshi asks her, “Ziva, who is he?”, “It’s papa,” answers Ziva.

Not to the extent that it starts bothering my cricket and all, but it is the first time ever when I feel, maybe I should Facetime to see what she is really doing,” Dhoni had said.
