Speaking on Geo Cinema, former Team India cricketer Robin Uthappa said, I saw Mahendra Singh Dhoni for the first time in 2003 during the India-A camp at NCA in Bengaluru. He was batting against fast bowler Munaf Patel at the MS Chinnaswamy Stadium. There was other bowling too. Dhoni was hitting big sixes. He also played helicopter shot. Some balls had gone outside the stadium.
the bowler started running towards the dressing room
Robin Uthappa said that Sreedharan Sriram was injured by his shot. Dhoni stepped out and played the shot and it went straight to the bowler. Shriram took out his hand but he got injured. After this they started running. We thought he was running after the ball, but he was running towards the dressing room. Uthappa said that two fingers of Shriram were broken. Then we would know how hard MS Dhoni hits the ball. Only then I had an idea that one day he would definitely play for India.
play t20 world cup together
Robin Uthappa and MS Dhoni appeared in many matches together for Team India and then CSK. It also includes the 2007 T20 World Cup. Uthappa also bowled during the ball out against Pakistan. Later he also became a close friend of Dhoni. Uthappa told that we became friends in 2004, but did not play together that much. I was an under-19 cricketer then and Dhoni was playing for India-A.
are fond of clothes
Robin Uthappa said that both we and Dhoni were fond of clothes. We used to go shopping a lot. We had a group. It also had Suresh Raina, Irfan Pathan, RP Singh, Piyush Chawla and Munaf Patel. We used to eat dal makhani, butter chicken, jeera aloo, and roti often. Although Dhoni was very stubborn in the matter of food. He used to eat butter chicken without chicken and was happy with gravy only.
