Indians Roast Barmy Army For Trolling Dhoni By Sharing India’s WC Defeat Pic On His Birthday

The legendary Indian cricketer MS Dhoni celebrated his 40th birthday yesterday and his fans from all over the world took to social media networks to wish their favourite cricketer. Usually a birthday wish is given in such a manner that the person should feel good or special and saying things which hurt him/her are avoided but England’s Barmy Army didn’t have enough decency of wishing the former Indian skipper in a pleasant manner.

The official Twitter handle of England’s Barmy Army shared a tweet in which they posted the birthday wish for Dhoni along with a photo from the match which was played between India and England in the ODI World Cup 2019. This match was played at Edgbaston, England, and it was the only match which India lost in the league stage. Batting first, England gave a target of 338 runs to the Indians but the Indian cricket team managed only 306/5 in the stipulated 50 overs and England won the match by 31 runs.

In the photo which has been posted by Barmy Army, MS Dhoni is seen walking back to the pavilion after getting dismissed. They captioned it with, “Happy Birthday MS, some amazing battles over the years” with flags emojis of England and India.

Here is the tweet:

This tweet did not go well with the Indian cricket fans, especially with the fans of MS Dhoni, and they gave it back to Barmy Army in a perfect style. While some reminded Barmy Army of the 2013 Champions Trophy final in which India defeated England in their backyard to win the trophy, few others reminded them of the match which was played in Barabati Stadium, Cuttack. In the match played at Cuttack, India posted a huge total of 381 runs with the help of brilliant knocks of Yuvraj Singh (150) and MS Dhoni (134) while England managed only 366/8 in the 50 overs and lost the match by 15 runs.

England’s Barmy Army could have posted a pleasant birthday wish for MS Dhoni but because of their hypocrite and irresponsible behaviour, they unnecessarily invited criticism and ended up facing wrath of netizens and getting reminded of more embarrassing defeats by the Indian cricket fans.

Kumar Sangakkara Corrects ICC On Its Post On Dhoni’s Birthday, Wins Hearts On Twitter

MS Dhoni, the former Indian cricketer who is also famous among his fans as Captain Cool, turned 40 yesterday and best wishes poured in from all over the world on the social media networks. There is no denying the fact that Dhoni is one of the most respected cricketers of the cricket world and his fan following is not just limited to India but he has fans all across the globe.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) also wished the former Indian wicketkeeper-batsman by posting a video of 1.34 minutes duration in which MS Dhoni is seen stumping many batsmen of various countries. The title of the video was, “MS Dhoni- The Quickest Hands in the East” and it was posted with the caption, “‘Only for a fraction of a second and Dhoni, like lightning, had those bails off.’ Happy birthday to one of the sharpest keepers in cricket history.”

Here is the video:

The video was also noticed by the former Sri Lankan cricketer Kumar Sangakkara who is also touted as one of finest wicketkeeper-batsmen of his time and he didn’t delay in correcting the ICC by telling them that Dhoni had quickest hands in the whole world when he used to play and not just in the east.

Kumar Sangakkara tweeted, “Quickest hands in the world during his time not just the East”.

The Indian cricket fans loved Kumar Sangakkara’s reaction and praised him for his humble remark.

As far as Dhoni’s stumping is concerned, he has 195 stumpings to his name at the international level which includes 38 in the purest form of the game, 123 in the ODIs and 34 in the shortest format (T20I). In the IPL, Dhoni has been leading Chennai Super Kings since its inauguration in 2008 and he has done 39 stumpings in his IPL career. These stats are more than enough to prove the caliber of MS Dhoni as a wicketkeeper who is also among the greatest finishers as well as one of the best skippers of all times.

Mahi is the only skipper to win all the three ICC tournaments – 2007 T20I World Cup, 2011 World Cup and 2013 Champions Trophy and he is also the second most successful skipper in the IPL as CSK has won the title three times under his leadership.

Fans of the legendary cricketer will be able to see him on the ground once again soon as Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has confirmed that it is going to conduct the remaining matches of the IPL 2021 in UAE in the month of September-October.
