With the COVID-19 pandemic putting a pause on sporting events all around the world, members of cricket fraternity have become quite busy on social media and are constantly updating fans with their daily-life activities. Recently, the official Twitter account of BCCI also shared a video in which India’s fielding coach R Sridhar can be seen showcasing some practice drills for the budding wicket-keepers and also nominated many other known Indian wicket-keepers to post a video of one such practice drill. However, he didn’t nominate the nation’s most-successful wicket-keeper MS Dhoni and the fans slammed the Indian fielding coach for ignoring the World-Cup winning captain. Ziva Dhoni Enjoys Bike Ride With Papa MS Dhoni, Mom Sakshi Says, ‘Two Kids Playing Here’ (Watch Video).

In the video shared by BCCI, Sridhar nominated as many as five wicket-keeping drills for the young cricketers which one can practice at any part of his house. At the conclusion of the clip, he nominated KL Rahul, Wriddhiman Saha, Rishabh Pant, Parthiv Patel, Dinesh Karthik and KS Bharat to share one such wicket-keeping drill with the fans.

All these names Sridhar took are around the current Indian team. However, one noticeable name which was missing was MS Dhoni. The Ranchi-born cricketer is a formidable force behind the stumps and is regarded as one of the best wicket-keepers ever. In fact, he has effected 829 dismissals behind the timbers which are third-most for any player in international cricket. So, his omission certainly agitated a lot of fans and below, we’ll look at how they reacted.
