Dhoni forgets to complete run, Aus fielders and umpires fail to notice

MS Dhoni during the second ODI

Mahendra Singh Dhoni rolled down the years in the second ODI between India and Australia in Adelaide, to score a 54-ball 55 and take India past the finishing line. The victory meant India levelled the three-match series 1-1, with the title on the line in the decider in Melbourne.


Apart from his match-winning innings, a couple of videos are doing the rounds, showing the former captain's antics at the crease. One video showed MS Dhoni shouting and abusing water-boy Khaleel Ahmed when he came on the field to serve drinks to Dhoni.


Now there is another video doing the rounds on social media where it is seen that MS Dhoni while completing a run, does not ground his bat or his foot inside the crease.


Neither the Australian players nor the umpires notice the lapse by Dhoni, and the match continued.
