New Delhi: Twitterverse lost its cool on Wednesday after former India captain MS Dhoni seemed to get teary-eyed after getting dismissed in the penultimate over in the semi-final against New Zealand in the ongoing ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup.
The wicket-keeper batsman played a knock of 50 runs, but was unable to take his side over the line against the Kiwis. Soon after being run out, Dhoni was visibly distraught, and this did not seem to go well with his fans.
Fans of the ace cricketer, who recently turned 38, took to Twitter to appeal to their idol to keep his chin high while praising his efforts in turning tables in favour of the Men in Blue.
“#INDvsNZ, Don’t cry Legend, Wherever you will be we will always support you. Love you Dhoni, 3000 times,” one fan wrote on Twitter. “For you cricket is not just a GAME and for us you are not just a PLAYER, you will be always in our hearts LEGEND #Dhoni,” another Twitter user wrote.
“Either we win or lose you all bashes him for no reason but he is nothing but the most humble and kind human being who loved playing for his country. he is the best Indian captain our country can ever produce, I’m sorry mahi we don’t deserve you. Dhoni,” wrote another fan.
