Forlorn Dhoni

As he stood immobile on the non-striker’s finish, an arm on his waist, Dhoni himself minimize a forlorn determine watching his workforce crumble.

It was just like the common Dhoni present was taking part in out in a parallel universe. The standing ovation when he walked out to bat at 17 for 4, the chants of ‘Dhoni, Dhoni’ when he eased Sams by way of cowl for his first 4, his sometimes calm selecting of the gaps, the couple of sixes that despatched the gang wild, even the unsuccessful sprint after leaving a bouncer to attempt to retain strike with No 11 on the different finish; all of it gave the impression to be occurring inside a cocoon the place actuality doesn’t matter. And the truth was that CSK had been dismissed for 97 in 16 overs, and their marketing campaign was all however formally over.
