Tell us about Dhoni’s leg, Dammit!
After Dhoni’s outstanding performance in the match yesterday, where he was on the field all day, except for the 26 minutes Gambhir and Sehwag batted, until Gambir was out. He faced cramps and battled on for two overs before calling for a runner in the 39th over and went on to play another 7 overs steadily against the pain to bring India home to victory.
Every news on India and cricket is full of praise for him, fans are delighted. There is a lot of talk on the victory, but much as I hunted, there is nothing on Dhoni’s current condition. Nothing about what exactly had hapened to his leg. Was it a simple cramp from dehydration, was it something wrong with his hamstring, how is he now, will he be playing tomorrow….. nothing.
I wish there was. I’d like to know that he’s ok. There’s loads of cricket coming up, and another crucial match tomorrow, and while we are all celebrating this victory, we are also looking forward to this match and his presence in it.
*sigh* if the news is not there, I guess its not there. I only hope it comes on later in the evening and is not left for us to discover tomorrow through his presence or absense. Don’t like the feeling that we are all wanting performance from the poor guy and not concerned about what is happening to him.
Will take a look and see what I find later on.
