#2 Dhoni’s failings, Harsha’s excuses
Dhoni was poor behind the stumps in yesterday’s game. His shoddy performance saw two relatively easy stumpings fluffed and a bye, not that that changed the course of the game much. He seemed deflated behind the stumps, missing opportunities he would not have in any other game. His batting was unremarkable, scoring 2 off 2 before edging off to backward point.
It was an off day for Dhoni to say the least (which loses games if you are the finisher and the wicketkeeper). It was met with the shock and calm commentary of Harsha Bhogle, who himself seemed content to make excuses for Dhoni’s game. We see what you did there, Mr. Bhogle, sticking by your team so no more Bollywood stars get you fired.
