Indian cricketer MS Dhoni has a massive fan base throughout the country which is evident from the reactions of fans when they meet him in public. Kerala is no different place and Dhoni’s popularity in the southern state is quite high. Even yesterday, a differently-abled fan waited to meet Dhoni outside Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram, where the Indian team arrived to face West Indies in the fifth and final ODI match.
The fan was sitting on his wheelchair waiting for former Indian captain and when Dhoni arrived at the spot, he showed a kind gesture towards his fan. Dhoni shook hands with him as the fan responded by kissing Dhoni’s hand. Dhoni also clicked few photos with him, and gifted him a photo-frame with his signature on it. Dhoni also had little chat with him and the fan was filled with rejoice. It became a lifetime memory for the fan and the video of the incident was shared on social media.
Have a look at the video below.
In the ODI series against West Indies, Dhoni’s batting form deteriorated further and he was not been able to display his magic with the bat. India bagged victory in the 5th ODI by 9 wickets, claiming the five-match ODI series against West Indies 3-1. This was the last match of Dhoni this year as he has been dropped from the upcoming T20 series against West Indies and Australia. Dhoni has been replaced by Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik as probable options for wicket-keepers.
