Dhoni Silences Skeptics With Brilliant Knock, Fans Flood Twitter With Applause (And Memes)

Form is temporary but class is MS Dhoni.

Any cricket fan worth his salt knows what I’m talking about. The former Indian skipper made doubters eat their words with his batting in the 2nd ODI against Australia. He scored 55 off 54 balls and gave us a beautiful six in the last over. Virat Kohli might have been the ‘man of the match’ but it was Mahi’s finish that had fans declare him the ‘star of the innings’.

This six is pure nostalgia

He was cool and composed even as fans cheered with admiration

At the post-match presentation, Virat Kohli had this to say,

“Tonight was an MS classic. Only he knows what’s going through his mind. He calculates the game so well. He backs himself to hit those big hits.”

It wasn’t just him beaming with joy. The Twitterati were savage towards those who questioned Dhoni’s fitness. They were dubbed ‘Dhoni haters’. Even former colleagues joined in the applause.
