Former India captain MS Dhoni started trending on social media on Tuesday after he made a short cameo on Rishabh Pant’s Instagram live. Captain Rohit Sharma, batter Suryakumar Yadav, and leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal also joined the live.
The chat took a hilarious turn after Rohit questioned Chahal on why he didn’t turn up for breakfast. The Indian captain’s brutal trolling of his star leg-spinner left both Pant and Suryakumar in splits. After a while, Chahal left the chat as MS Dhoni’s wife Sakshi joined in to the surprise of many.
Rishabh Pant tried to drag Dhoni for the Instagram live but Dhoni blocked his camera and tried to hide his face. Pant was heard saying, “Mahi bhai, kya haal hain. Rakho rakho, bhaiya ko thoda live pe rakho (How are you Mahi brother? Please keep brother on the live),” before the former cricketer shut off the camera.
Pant and Rohit were quick to note that Dhoni had applied colour to his hair and hence did not want to stay around.
