ICC Cricket World Cup 2019: MS Dhoni’s low strike rate

MS Dhoni’s low and steady knock of 56 off 61 balls against West Indies at Old Trafford. Dhoni walked in with India on 122/3 in 27th over against Afghanistan, when Virat Kohli departed after scoring a breezy-century, Dhoni decided he will bat long. He scratched his way to 28 runs off 52 balls, including 33 dots.
India scored 224 runs, but because the bowling stood up to an inexperienced and nervous Afghanistan, the scoreboard shows an 11 run win. Howeverm 37 year old cricketer found it hard to rotate the strike. Dhoni scored 28 off 52 balls before Rashid Khan got the better of him. It was Jasprint Bumrah’s death bowling and Mohammed Shami’s late hat-trick saved the day for India.
