MS Dhoni dropped from T20Is: Fans vent ire on selectors, tweet support for Thala
Have the selectors made the right decision by dropping Mahendra Singh Dhoni from India's T20I squad?
Mahendra Singh Dhoni was on Friday dropped from India's squads for the upcoming T20 International series against West Indies and Australia.
The Board Of Control for Cricket in India released the squads late on Friday and fans immediately took to social media to voice their disapproval.
Dhoni retired from Tests a few years ago, choosing to concentrate only on white-ball cricket. His ommission from India's T20 squad compelled many to suggest that the legend might not make it to the 2019 ICC World Cup.
