‘Ab kal regret karega’ – Fans react as Harbhajan Singh hits back at fan crediting MS Dhoni for World Cup glory

Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh took a dig at the fan on Socia media after he shared a Tweet related to MS Dhoni after India lost the World Test Championship final against Australia on Sunday, June 11th. India suffered a huge 209-run defeat in their second consecutive WTC final against the Aussies.

Disappointed by India’s performance in the final, a Twitter user shared a picture of the former Indian skipper and wrote about how he won the 20-20 World Cup with the inexperienced Indian team in his first outing as the skipper. To which, Harbhajan replied that a tournament was won by the whole team and not a single individual.

“No coach , no mentor , young boy’s , most of the senior player’s denied to take part . never captianed any single match before . This guy defeated prime australia in semifinals and won a T20 World Cup in 48 day’s after becoming captain,” the user named 𝐒𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐲𝐚𝐬𝐌𝐒𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐧 wrote on his Twitter while sharing a picture of Dhoni.

“Yes when these matches were played this young boy was playing alone from india.. not the other 10 .. so alone he won the World Cup trophies .. irony when Australia or any other nation win the World Cup headlines says Australia or etc country won. But when indian wins it’s said captain won 😂 it’s a team sports . Win together lose together,” Harbhajan replied by resharing the Tweet.

India lost another knockout match

Talking about the match summary, After being asked to bat first, Australia posted a total of 469 runs in their first innings, powered by the centuries by Steve Smith (121 runs) and Marnus Labuschagne (164 runs), In reply India could only reach to 296 runs as Ajinkya Rahane turned to be the top scorer for the team. Playing his comeback match, Rahane got out after scoring 89 runs off 129 balls. While Shardul Thakur also went on to score his third consecutive fifty at the Oval.

After getting a big first-innings lead, Australia declared their second innings 270 runs for the loss of 8 wickets giving India a mammoth target of 444 runs. Alex Carey top-scored 66 runs off 105 balls. Chasing the winning total, India lost early wickets as the score was reduced to 93 for 3. After that Virat Kohli and Rahane put up a partnership of 86 runs for the fourth wicket. However, after the partnership was broken, the Australian bowlers ddin’t took much time to take the rest of the wickets as India lost their 7 wickets for 70 runs on Day 5 and were bowled out for 234 runs.

Your Seniors are more mature. Dravid Ganguly,Sachin,VVS,Kumble had their ego problems with one another,but they rarely opened their mouth to take a personal dig.
They co-operated after retirement for the betterment of Indian cricket.
Criticizing technicals are different.

Your moot point of team being above of the individuals is correct. And i don't think anybody, least of all, MS Dhoni would disagree with this fact. But he can't control the hyperventilating fans or media over glamorizing individuals. So, your outrage is probably misplaced here.

Don’t you understand the concept of a FAN or CAPTAIN?

Where in this tweet it has been said that no one else contributed?

Read carefully tweet praises his captaincy capabilities and says nowhere that he alone won the World Cup.

Do you deny that the contribution of Dhoni as a…

Cricket is a team sport n every player has a major contribution towards the victory. But when you play w/ different set of players n manage to achieve so many titles, YOU GOTTA BOW DOWN TO THE KING @msdhoni 👑 pic.twitter.com/wunyRL2WnY

Dhoni is one guy who never cares about limelight or social media validation, he has never ever said India won because of me , but people loves him because of his unassuming nature. Even when he was losing the test series in Australia, he was driving the team bus. He is the best.

But thn why a "captain" is removed/replaced when the team fails to win an ICC trophy if the other 10 are equally responsible for the win/defeat?
