New Delhi: Veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh said on Wednesday that MS Dhoni was very shy when he first came into the team. Bhajji said that after the Sydney Test against Australia in 2008, the wicketkeeper started an open dialogue with everyone. Harbhajan Singh was chatting with the Chennai Super Kings official account on Instagram Live and was then asked to share a favorite moment with Dhoni.
Replying to this question, Harbhajan said, 'We have played a lot of cricket together. We have toured almost all countries together. MS Dhoni was a very shy man. He would never get out of his room. He was very quiet. In the series against Australia in 2008, the entire team united in the Sydney Test. From here Dhoni opened with the whole team.
Bhajji further said, 'Dhoni was young in the team. He was quite shy despite being the captain of the team. He used to give advice, but also allowed everyone to do their own things. He is still like that. He gives complete freedom to everyone. It is something that everyone loves to learn from it. You have to give space to your bowlers.
Monkeygate dispute took place in 2008
The 2008 Sydney Test between India and Australia is well remembered by Harbhajan Singh and Andrew Symonds. Symonds accused Harbhajan of incestuous remarks and the incident is then remembered as a monkeygate. In the 2008 Sydney Test, the Indian team faced some bad umpiring decisions and the team lost the match.
Due to a dispute with Symonds, Harbhajan Singh was banned for three matches and the ban was lifted on 29 January 2008. It was then revealed that Harbhajan Singh used the term indecent against Symonds and the Australian player, hearing something wrong, demanded action.
Dhoni is on break
38-year-old Dhoni is currently on break. He played his last competitive match against New Zealand in the 2019 World Cup. Dhoni was about to return to the cricket action from the IPL, but the IPL was postponed indefinitely due to Corona virus epidemic. Let us know that Dhoni is the only captain in the world, who has won all three ICC trophies (50 over World Cup, T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy).
