When Dhoni refused to help Shardul Thakur, Harbhajan Singh reveals

New Delhi. MS Dhoni is always seen helping his/her teammates. he/she is always alert especially for his/her bowlers. he/she not only sets the field for them but also gives them tips on line-length. But would you believe that there are many occasions on the field when Captain Cool refuses to help his/her bowlers. Harbhajan Singh narrated one such incident when Dhoni refused to help Shardul Thakur.

Shardul Thakur has played four years in the IPL under the captaincy of MS Dhoni. he/she played for Chennai Super Kings from 2018 to 2021. Harbhajan Singh mentioned a match of the IPL itself. Dhoni told Taruwar Kohli during a conversation, ‘We were playing for Chennai Super Kings. I was fielding at fine leg. Kane Williamson hit several fours on Shardul Thakur’s ball. On this I went to Dhoni to advise Shardul Thakur to change the length. But Dhoni did not do so.’

Harbhajan Singh further says, ‘Dhoni told me that if I help Shardul now, he/she will never learn. Dhoni wanted Shardul to understand his/her mistake himself and correct it. Dhoni believes that you learn quickly only from your own mistakes.’

Harbhajan Singh said that Dhoni remains calm. he/she knows what to do next. he/she knows how to win matches. he/she never runs after personal records. his/her focus is the team’s victory and this is the biggest reason for his/her success.
