MS Dhoni: During the World Test Championship final, where India suffered a defeat by 209 runs against Australia, former player Harbhajan Singh engaged in a confrontation with a fan who emphasised that MS Dhoni single-handedly secured the T20 World Cup victory and defeated Australia. Harbhajan Singh asserted that all ten other players also played pivotal roles in those accomplishments, emphasizing that cricket is ultimately a team sport.
Harbhajan Singh responds to tweet praising MS Dhoni
Since clinching the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy, India has been unable to secure a single ICC title. The remarkable triumph in that tournament was achieved under the leadership of the legendary MS Dhoni, who guided the team to victory in three prestigious events: the T20 World Cup 2007, ODI World Cup 2011, and the Champions Trophy. However, a zealous fan went a step too far and subtly questioned Rohit Sharma by suggesting that it was solely Dhoni’s captaincy that propelled India to victory in the T20 World Cup Final.
Sharing a photo of MS Dhoni, a fan wrote on Twitter, “No coach , no mentor , young boy’s , most of the senior player’s denied to take part . never captianed any single match before . This guy defeated prime australia in semifinals and won a T20 World Cup in 48 day’s after becoming captain.”
Responding to the tweet, MS Dhoni said, “Yes when these matches were played this young boy was playing alone from india.. not the other 10 .. so alone he won the World Cup trophies .. irony when Australia or any other nation win the World Cup headlines says Australia or etc country won. But when indian wins it’s said captain won 😂 it’s a team sports . Win together lose together.”

What did coach Rahul Dravid speak on defeat?
Following the match, the two-time World Cup winner engaged in an extensive conversation with Rahul Dravid, raising concerns about whether the team’s decline could be attributed to playing on challenging Indian dustbowl pitches. Dravid promptly responded, expressing that nobody aspired to compete on such difficult surfaces, and emphasized the importance of addressing such issues in order to build a strong team.
