“Shame on Deshdrohi Dhoni” Trends on Social Media: What’s the Real Story?
Everyone is familiar with the various narratives that arise in the world of cricket. In the midst of this chaos, news regarding cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni has surfaced. Social media is currently flooded with content, and one particular trend is going viral: “Shame on Deshdrohi Dhoni.” The question now is—what is the reason behind this? The IPL is ongoing, and yet this trend about Dhoni is spreading more than any match highlight.
Why Is India’s Former Captain Being Targeted?
It’s shocking to see that people are targeting India’s former captain and pushing such a trend. Everyone is surprised, asking what Dhoni has done to deserve this kind of criticism. People are commenting phrases like “Shame on Deshdrohi Dhoni” and “Dayal ka Pet Dhobi,” directed at Dhoni. Some fans are even warning others, saying, “Next time, think before speaking about Virat Kohli.” These events have left fans confused and curious.
It is disheartening to see such language being used for Dhoni—a man who has led India to a World Cup victory and contributed immensely to Indian cricket. So, what actually led to this controversy?
What Happened During the RCB vs KKR IPL Match?
The incident took place during the IPL match between RCB and KKR. Several cricketers were present in the commentary box, including Harbhajan Singh. During the commentary, there was a discussion about various cricketers. Harbhajan Singh commented that Dhoni should continue playing and that his fans are real and not paid supporters.
Although he did not directly mention anyone, it is now being speculated that his comments were aimed at Virat Kohli. This triggered Kohli’s fanbase, who began targeting Dhoni with offensive comments and hashtags, even though Dhoni himself did not say anything about Kohli. Neither Dhoni nor Harbhajan is at fault here, but the fans’ overreaction has created an unnecessary controversy.
Cricket Fans Divided: An Embarrassment for Indian Cricket
It is upsetting to see such statements being made against Dhoni, who has given so much to Indian cricket. These online attacks, driven by fan wars, are embarrassing for Indian cricket. Instead of promoting unity, these actions are dividing fans and tarnishing the sport’s spirit. Respect should be given to legends like Dhoni and Kohli alike, and social media should not be used to spread hate based on assumptions. https://youtu.be/S-W7N-9JG7A?si=Ys0EyN7FmNsJw7_I
