'MS Dhoni kept hurling abuses at me...'- Former India cricketer shares unheard incident about MS Dhoni

Former India skipper MS Dhoni and his control over nerves and mind are already broadly discussed. Like every human being, Dhoni too sometimes lost calm during matches. Now, there are several instances when former cricketers spoke about the incidents when Dhoni reacted in outrageous ways.

In a recent interview, Mohit Sharma, who played a lot of cricket with MSD, shared an unheard story about the former skipper. Dhoni was so angry with Mohit during a match that he ambushed the bowler on the field despite taking a wicket. Recalling memories from a Champions League T20 match, when Chennai Super Kings was up against Kolkata Knight Riders.

Dhoni shouted for Ishwar Pandey to bowl, but Mohit Dhoni asked him to bowl and started to run. When he realized what the skipper actually asked, it was too late. Sharma went to deliver, and soon he clinched the wicket of Yusuf Pathan. Still, Dhoni was mad at Mohit for his mistake.

Here's what Mohit Sharma said about an incident related to MS Dhoni

"There was a moment in the CLT20 against the Kolkata Knight Riders when Mahi Bhai called Ishwar Pandey to bowl, but I thought he called me. I started my run-up, but Mahi Bhai said he didn't call me to bowl, and he tried calling Ishwar. The umpire said I have to continue bowling as I had started my run-up. He lost his cool at me and abused me. I took Yusuf [Pathan] Bhai's wicket on the first ball. During the celebration, Mahi bhai was still hurling abuses," Mohit Sharma said casually. 

"At the same time, I had a lot of off-field moments with him. He is someone who loves to teach things. Every time you sit with him, you learn something in life, not just about the sport. He teaches how cricket can make a kind human," he added.
