India vs New Zealand | I just blindly bowl where MS Dhoni asks me to, says Kedar Jadhav

Time and again many Indian players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have emphasised on the importance of MS Dhoni in the Indian team. Earlier today, after India defeated hosts New Zealand in the second ODI by 90 runs, Indian all-rounder Kedar Jadhav was prodded by former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar to speak on how MS Dhoni guides him from behind the wickets.

“In the past also I have mentioned, everytime I get a question I just look at MS Dhoni and he tells me ‘You have to do this and bowl here’ and that’s it I close my eyes and put my ball there. That’s it. And you get a Wicket,” Jadhav tells Gavaskar after the match.

MS Dhoni seems to possess a knack for studying and picking the batsmen’s mindset which he relays to the bowler and more often than not he is proven right. And combining that foresight with a slick glovework which he is known for, he becomes a dangerous customer behind the wickets for any opposition.

“It’s working for India and that’s fantastic,” replies Gavaskar.

While India have already won the first two matches of the series, New Zealand is looking clueless against this Indian side and has been searching for ways to find a loophole in the Indian side. Former New Zealand allrounder Scott Styris though seemed to have found a way to improve his team’s performance and said that he will ask the New Zealand players to learn Hindi in order to know India’s tactics beforehand so his fellow countrymen could defeat the Indian team at the World Cup.

“So what you are saying that he is speaking Hindi that New Zealanders need to learn Hindi. Isn’t that Hindi he is speaking?,” asks Scott Styris.

“So if New Zealanders understand Hindi, they will exactly know what they are speaking, I will pass this on. Before the start of the World Cup, our batsmen need to learn Hindi.”
