The legendary MS Dhoni and his close friend Suresh Raina have always shared a special bond, both on and off the field. During the ongoing IPL 2024 season, Raina revealed a heartwarming conversation he had with Dhoni, who expressed his appreciation for the Bhojpuri commentary.
Dhoni, who has been battling a persistent knee injury, was seen struggling during the intense match against Mumbai Indians. His left leg was heavily strapped, indicating the severity of his condition. After the match, Raina stepped up as a true friend, assisting Dhoni as he made his way through the Wankhede Stadium.
Raina shared that Dhoni had been enjoying the Bhojpuri commentary in the IPL. “He said, ‘Bahut hi gajabe commentary kar rahe Bhojpuriya me.’ I told him Haryanwi is also nice,” Raina said on JioCinema.
CSK bowling consultant Eric Simmons confirmed Dhoni’s knee injury but praised his resilience. “He’s one of the hardest men I’ve ever come across. I don’t even think we know to what extent he may or may not be in pain. He just carries on and does his thing,” Simmons said.
Despite his injury, Dhoni has continued to lead CSK with determination. His unwavering spirit and the support of his teammates, especially Raina, have been instrumental in the team’s success.
The bond between Dhoni and Raina extends beyond the cricket field. They have been close friends for many years, sharing a mutual respect and admiration. Raina’s assistance to Dhoni after the match is a testament to their deep friendship and the importance of camaraderie in sports.
