IPL Final 2023: Unfortunate happened 12 years ago, Dhoni could not control his emotions, today again…

New Delhi. Mega Sunday of IPL 2023 turned out to be a rainy day for Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings. The regret of not being able to lift the trophy turned into regret day. Along with this, the memories of MS Dhoni’s mind blowing 12 years ago also became fresh. Then the leader of Chennai ‘Thalaiva’ who was defeated by the power of the sky was also extinguished and for the first time the warrior who did not bring out his emotions expressed his despair in front of everyone.

This was the occasion in June 2011 when Team India reached the Caribbean soil under the leadership of Dhoni to play 3 Test matches. India won the first Test match played in Kingston by 63 runs in 4 days. The second Test of the series was played in Bridgetown, Barbados from 28 June to 2 July. Team India’s first innings was reduced to 201. In response, the West Indies were also bundled out for 190 runs in the first innings. Dhoni declared the innings on 269 runs with a lead of 11 runs in the second innings. In the fourth innings, the West Indies team, which came down to achieve the target of 281 runs, at one time became 5 wickets for 181 runs.

To win West Indies needed 100 more runs in 18.3 overs when it started raining in Bridgetown. The game was halted for 32 minutes. When the match started again, Indian bowlers dropped two more wickets. Team India now needed only three wickets. Then the game was stopped for 15 more minutes due to the wet ground. In the end, the umpires canceled the match citing weather and bad light. Disappointed at being stopped on the threshold of victory, MS Dhoni expressed his frustration in the match presentation.

Mahi said, ‘I am a little disappointed. The rain ruined our plans for victory. Bad weather and light spoiled the fun of victory. Please tell that the Meteorological Department has expressed the possibility of rain in Ahmedabad on May 29 as well. According to the rules of IPL, if it is not possible to bowl a super over in case of rain on the day of Reserve Day, then the top team in the group stage i.e. Gujarat Titans will be considered as the champion.
