Yograj Singh’s Persistent Criticism of MS Dhoni
The father of former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh, Yograj Singh, has once again launched an attack against MS Dhoni, the former captain of the Indian cricket team. The former cricketer has ever since accused Dhoni of undermining his son Yuvraj’s cricketing career. In his latest outburst, Yograj claimed that Dhoni would “never be forgiven” for what he perceived as injustices done to Yuvraj.
Yograj’s Allegations Against Dhoni
For years, Yograj Singh has spoken out against Dhoni’s role in Yuvraj’s career. He believes Dhoni was responsible for the downslide of Yuvraj’s international career, which led to the all-rounder losing his place in the team and eventually retiring from international cricket in 2019. In a recent interview on Zee Switch’s YouTube channel, Yograj said, “I won’t forgive MS Dhoni. He is a very big cricketer, but what he has done against my son, everything is coming out now; it can never be forgiven in life.”
A History of Criticism
This is not the first time Yograj Singh has publicly attacked Dhoni. Earlier this year, he attributed the “bad deeds” performed by Dhoni to the reason CSK fared poorly in the current IPL 2024 season. Yograj explained that Dhoni’s so-called envy of Yuvraj resulted in bad choices and hence brought about the failure. Yograj said in a viral video, “CSK lost IPL 2024. Why did they lose? It’s whatever you sow, so shall you reap.”
Yuvraj Singh’s Relationship with Dhoni
Yuvraj Singh, one of India’s most celebrated cricketers, has maintained silence on the issue. Though Yuvraj has admitted that he struggled towards the later part of his career, he never blamed Dhoni for it. In fact, several times, Yuvraj spoke highly of Dhoni’s leadership when they won together the 2007 ICC World Twenty20 and the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup.
MS Dhoni’s Legacy and Response
MS Dhoni, who announced his retirement from international cricket in August 2020, is a very popular figure. India won a number of titles under his captaincy, including the 2007 ICC World Twenty20, 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup, and 2013 ICC Champions Trophy. Dhoni, however has avoided getting involved in a public spat following the attack by Yograj Singh. This is typical of his reputation as a cool, calm, and collected leader on and off the field.
Impact on Indian Cricket
The present spat between Yograj Singh and MS Dhoni reflects once again trials and stresses top-level cricketers go through in India. While the remarks of Yograj have incited a debate among cricket enthusiasts, they also show the way relationships can be really complicated in the sport. For many, Dhoni is still a hero; for others, they can only empathize with Yograj’s point as a father who felt his son’s failures throughout his career.
The Future of the Controversy
More importantly, this ongoing controversy would be engrossing to see, considering the uncertainty over MS Dhoni’s future in the IPL, with speculations of him not playing the next season. As of now, Dhoni seems to continue his job in the IPL, and the rest remains for the public to guess. Whereas, the criticisms by Yograj Singh have also continued to raise conversations within the cricket fraternity, keeping the controversy alive.
