MS Dhoni And Irfan Pathan Controversy

Dhoni, who normally stays away from the headlines, was back in the news after an old interview of his ex-teammate Irfan Pathan went viral on social media. The former all-rounder revealed the communication gap between the players and team management.

“Yes, I asked him. During the 2008 Australia series, Mahi bhai's statement came out in the media that Irfan wasn't bowling well. I thought I had bowled well throughout the series, so I went and asked Mahi bhai,” Pathan had said in the interview with Sports Tak.

He further remarked, “I don't have a habit of setting up hookah in someone's room or talking about this. Everyone knows. Sometimes if you don't speak about it, it's better. A cricketer's job is to perform on the field and that is what I used to focus on."

Dhoni has not officially said anything on Pathan's statement yet. However, the latter reacted on X saying: "Half decade old video surfacing NOW with a twisted context to the Statement. Fan war? PR lobby?"
