Team India ke fans ka dil toot gaya jab Men in Blue ne ODI World Cup 2019 ke semi-final mein England mein New Zealand ke khilaf haar ka samna kiya.
MS Dhoni ka late run-out run chase ke dauran recent times ke Indian cricket ke liye sabse heartbreaking moments mein se ek ban gaya.
Dhoni ki dismissal ne match mein ek dramatic turnaround la diya, jisse New Zealand ne 18 runs se match jeet kar World Cup final mein entry kar li.
Ek purani video jo ab viral ho rahi hai, usme Rohit yeh kehte hue suna ja sakta hai:
“Mujhe personally hamesha lagta hai ki Dhoni ka number 4 par batting karna team ke liye ideal hota. Yeh totally depend karta hai captain (Virat) aur coach par ki wo iske baare mein kya sochte hain. Personally, main khush hota agar woh (Dhoni) number four par bat karte.”
Notably, Dhoni ne all-important semi-final mein number seven par aake batting ki thi, jab India 240 runs ka target chase kar raha tha.
Pehle batting karte hue, Blackcaps ne apne 50 overs mein 239/8 ka challenging total post kiya aur is score ko defend karte hue early overs mein badhiya bowling effort dikhaya.
India 24-4 par struggle kar raha tha aur Rishabh Pant aur Hardik Pandya ke out hone ke baad score 92-6 ho gaya tha.
Dhoni, jo number seven par batting karne aaye the, ne Ravindra Jadeja ke saath milkar ek crucial partnership banayi, jisme Jadeja ne apne style mein bowlers ko challenge kiya.
Duo ne seventh wicket ke liye 116 runs add kiye, jisme Jadeja ne ek fighting half-century banayi aur 77 runs off 59 balls ke score par 48th over mein out ho gaye.
India ko last two overs mein 31 runs ki zaroorat thi jab Dhoni ne attack karne ka faisla kiya. Unhone ek deep backward point ke upar ek six mara, jo India ki hopes ko zinda rakha.
Dhoni ki innings 50 runs off 72 balls ke score par khatam hui, jab Martin Guptill ke fine fielding effort ke saath unka direct hit ne Dhoni ko crease se bahar nikal diya.
Yeh legendary wicketkeeper-batter ka India ke liye last outing sabit hua, kyunki unhone agle saal, 15 August 2020 ko, ek Instagram post ke zariye apne retirement ka announcement kiya.
“Thanks a lot for your support throughout. From 1929 hrs consider me as Retired,” unhone Instagram par post kiya.
Jahan Rohit ko defeat ke baad almost teary eyes ke saath dekha gaya, Dhoni ke knock ko ek massive backlash mila kyunki kuch logon ne unki slow effort ko criticize kiya, jabki Jadeja asaani se boundaries maar rahe the.
Baad mein, Dhoni, tab ke captain Kohli aur team management ko criticize kiya gaya ki unhone itne late batting ke liye kyun aaya, jab team ko middle mein unke experience ke saath ek stable partnership ki zaroorat thi.
MS Dhoni cricket ki history mein ek hi captain hain jo white-ball formats mein sabhi ICC trophies jeet chuke hain.
India ne 2007 T20 World Cup unki captaincy ke under jeeta, uske baad 2011 ODI World Cup aur 2013 ICC Champions Trophy bhi jeeti.
